North Side Housing and Supportive Services supports the premise that “housing is a right and not a privilege.”

Our core values include:

• Homelessness is not who people are, but a challenging societal issue that North Side Housing and Supportive Services and other agencies are working diligently to end.
• People can be and are homeless, not “homeless people”
• Everyone has an individualized optimal level of capacity—North Side Housing and Supportive Services ensures that our consumers have what is needed to build their capacity to whatever their optimal capacity level is; no one person is the same and therefore goals are individualized and not generalized
• A person “armed with the truth about his or her self and accepts it, is positioned to excel; and
• The value of a person at North Side Housing and Supportive Services is not measured by his or her situation at any given time–but by the very fact they are human beings.
