Mission & Vision

Mission: We increase access to spiritual care and community – at night, on the phones, on the streets.

We do not judge or convert. We meet people wherever they are and offer loving presence.

Vision: We envision a world in which everyone can connect to their inherent sacredness and express their unique humanity in spiritual companionship.
