Our Programs
At Eva’s, our programs are open to all youth and are culturally responsive and trauma-informed to meet the unique needs of Black youth.
All youth are welcome at Eva’s, and everyone benefits and learns from our approach.
“When I was looking for housing, people would turn me down just because I was Black. I would come with first and last month’s rent and be the first person there, yet I would be instantly denied. What did I do to make someone treat me like that when all I was trying to do was survive?”
—Reno, a former resident of Eva’s

Stories
from Eva’s
“Being a part of the program gave me a lot of skills to find a job, have a better resume and cover letter, do well in interviews and dress professionally. I also learned soft skills like conflict resolution and how to adapt to the work environment.”
