"The staff haven’t just offered me their expanse of knowledge and experience, but they’ve taught me to give myself compassion, to celebrate my strengths, and to keep moving forward."

"For me, having walls around me means having security. While homeless, I was always worried about the next thing. How would I eat tonight? What was the weather going to be like the next day? Where would I sleep? Now I can come home, hang up my jacket, and have my routine. It’s made a huge difference."

"Estoy muy agradecido a La Puente. Aunque es temporal, por ahora este lugar es mi casa."

"To me, La Puente is more than just a shelter; it is a beacon of hope for those who have found themselves without a home or in need of essential services. Your efforts empower people to rebuild their lives with dignity and purpose."

"You all welcome anyone with open arms."
