At Avivo Village, we believe everyone deserves housing, dignity, and support. Our unique harm reduction shelter provides safe, low-barrier access for individuals experiencing homelessness—many of whom face complex challenges related to mental health, substance use, and trauma. Join our team and be part of something transformative.

Avivo’s Ending Homelessness Division is committed to providing culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and harm reduction-based services.
