    Mission
    To house, support, and advocate for people experiencing homelessness.
    About Us
    Since our beginnings in 1982 in the basement of Simpson United Methodist Church, Simpson has become a leading nonprofit providing assistance to people experiencing homelessness. In response to unmet community needs, our services have grown to include five key programs: emergency shelter, supportive housing programs for youth, single adults, and families – along with developmental and educational services for children of families in our Family Housing Program.
    We were one of the first Minnesota organizations to use the nationally-recognized Housing First model. Individuals and families are placed into housing immediately then supported with identified services to help address barriers. We work across the metro area partnering with landlords and developers to find sustainable housing for families and individuals. The majority of our program participants live in scattered-site housing or individual apartments in market-rate apartment buildings, with the largest number of participants living in Hennepin County.
    Last year, we provided supportive services to 568 individuals and 275 families with more than 593 children. Click here to view our shelter and housing program locations in the community.
    Values
    We believe that everybody has the right to safe and affordable housing.
    We celebrate and embrace the uniqueness and dignity of every person.
    We encourage people to draw upon their strengths and promote the power of self-advocacy.
    We advocate against the injustices of society that cause homelessness and poverty.
    We strive to create a collaborative community with the individuals we serve, within Simpson, and with the greater community.
    Our Commitment to Advancing Racial Equity
    We hold steadfast to our values, embracing the uniqueness and dignity of each person and advocating against the injustices of society. Together, we are committed to working for racial equity and ending homelessness.

    At the Charities Review Council, we partner with nonprofit leaders to build and communicate their organizations’ internal strengths. With a combination of cloud-based technical assistance, non-judgmental support, and robust resources, we provide a risk-free environment where organizations can undertake our innovative Accountability Wizard® review process to align their internal practices with widely-accepted standards of nonprofit strength and accountability. By creating the spaces, places, and tools for donor-nonprofit engagement, we are building a culture of philanthropy where donors, funders, and nonprofits are engaged partners, working together toward stronger communities.

    WE ARE DEDICATED TO DONORS.
    As a Board member, I am one of the fiduciaries who steer the organization towards a sustainable future by adopting sound, ethical, and legal governance and financial management policies, as well as by making sure Charities Review Council has adequate resources to advance its mission. I attend all board and committee meetings and functions, such as special events. I am informed about the organization's mission, services, policies, and programs. I review agenda and supporting materials prior to board and committee meetings.

    Economic Empowerment

    As a Volunteer Trained Educator I taught the students of Paul R. Smith Middle School a course in Economic Empowerment. This was a highly interactive experiential 3 hour training class that gave the students an opportunity to take charge of their financial future as well as learn the benefits of a secondary education. This was lots of fun and I can't wait to participate in next years "Diploma See Day Event"
