Your destiny is not defined by your zip code or the color of your skin.
Building Opportunities for Self-Sufficiency (BOSS) walks alongside individuals and families on the path from survival to stability — through housing, healing, career support, and community.
The first days after release can change everything. BOSS case managers in the Alameda County courts connect people awaiting trial with housing, health care, employment and recovery support, so they can return to court and build a stable path forward.
If gun violence has touched your life, BOSS offers short-term help with rent, utilities, transportation, medical costs and other essentials. Eligible participants can also join our healing circles for guided support, one-on-one clinical care and community.
Have an idea? A skill? A few hours? Let's build something together. BOSS welcomes individuals, businesses, and community groups ready to put their hands to work for housing, healing, and justice.
