imagining life after experiencing homelessness

Support by Donating

​In 2020, People Loving Nashville began to work with the “Rapid Rehousing Initiative” partnering with like-minded agencies and the city in housing hundreds of people living on the streets.

During this time, we have seen a beautiful opportunity. There is a critical time during the transition from homelessness to “homefulness”. Addressing deep trauma and grief that people could be carrying is key to sustainability. 

What it looks like to thrive after homelessness?

Through our Restoration program, we aim to meet our friends during this critical period, at their new home and set the table to nourish their minds, bodies, and souls.

MIND: Counseling, Goal-Setting, Art, and Equine Therapy.
BODY: Cooking, Cleaning, Organization, Finances, and Physical awareness.
​SOUL: Intro to the Healer, what is the kingdom like?

Therapy & RecoverY
We start to heal the moment we feel heard. 

Until we create a safe space where one may feel heard and seen, it is difficult to support someone breaking out of trauma one has found themselves in.

We intentionally serve minds, bodies, and souls to bring holistic healing to our community. We are partnering with counselors and therapists to build weekly group therapy and recovery classes. We have also found that non-traditional therapy opportunities are a better fit for our community. We listen to both the community and the counselors' and therapists' recommendations to bring personalized support on their journey - whether through art therapy, music therapy, or equine therapy.

RESTORATION OUTREACH VOLUNTEERS

During our Wednesday and Friday Restoration Outreaches we serve an apartment complex where many friends have recently found stable housing. We are looking for three volunteers to join us.
