Boilerplate Statement
For over 40 years, Saint John’s Program for Real Change has provided a safe, supportive space for women and children to heal and develop the skills necessary to transform their lives. Guided by a vision to end the generational cycle of trauma and homelessness, Saint John’s operates the largest residential program for women and children experiencing homelessness in the Greater Sacramento region.
Since 1985, we have offered the tools our clients need to achieve stability and long-term self-sufficiency. With the support of community partners and volunteers, Saint John’s provides services 24 hours a day, 365 days a year—including shelter, nutritious meals, childcare, and a full spectrum of wraparound services such as behavioral health support, hands-on employment training, career education, housing navigation, and family services.
