Event Calendar

Will you be the voice for a child in foster care? 

"My CASA volunteering gives my life MEANING and is also FUN.  I can schedule it to suit my calendar.  My CASA youth and I jointly choose what to do, so we both have fun. What else am I doing (work, exercise, movie-going, hanging with friends, travel, hiking, biking, cooking, etc.) that could possibly be as meaningful and satisfying as creating an authentic, warm connection with a young person in need of acceptance?"   - Monica, current CASA Volunteer

Please join the Housing Action Grace Group sponsoring the community screening and panel discussion of “Home is a Hotel,” a winner of the Documentary Feature Award and Audience Award at the 2023 SF Film Festival. Through intimate portraits of residents, the film documents the impact on five families living in cramped 80 sq. ft. Single Room Occupancy units – a decades-old solution to homelessness.

Homeless Prenatal Program ED Shellena Eskridge, Founder Martha Ryan, and Jacquelynn Evans (whose story is told in the film) will join the filmmakers in a panel discussion following the film to discuss the challenges families in San Francisco face and how we can respond.

Please note there is an admission fee for visitors on Sundays from 1 – 5 pm. Those wishing to attend the film screening must register in advance to avoid paying the fee.
