How long does it take to change a direction, a system, a life? It begins with

ONE DAY.

We're excited to invite you to City Relief One Day, a single-day conference designed to bring together our community for learning, connection, and inspiration.

This event is the evolution of our City Relief Commons online sessions, where we brought together experts to share their insights about homelessness. Now we're taking it to the next level with an in-person experience!

November 15th / The Historic Chapel of The Good Shepherd / 9AM - 2PM
