Senior Maintenance Technician | MB

Senior Maintenance Technician | Mission Bay Apartments

Home Rise believes that home has the power to stabilize a person's life. Built on a simple - but powerful idea called supportive housing, we provide people experiencing homelessness with a place to call home combined with support services, like mental health services and job training, so they can rise up and transform their lives. We organize our residents and supporters to advocate for local and state policies, like affordable housing, to help people still on the streets or at risk of homelessness.

Together, we're building a new future for our neighborhoods and the city we love.
