The results are out! Earlier this year, DST conducted optional and anonymous surveys to ensure the needs and goals of our Team Members are being met. The 2023 survey results included responses from 74% of our agency’s Team Members, which was our highest participation to date! Take a look at the end of the video 👀 We are beyond proud to report that a large majority of our Team Members feel supported and valued by DST’s program and staff. Spanning across 20 communities in the Greater Bay Area, DST continues to deliver compassion and assistance to folks in need. #DowntownStreetsTeam #DST #Berkeley #BayArea #Homelessness #HomelessCommunity #Community #Volunteers #WorkExperience #NonProfit #Organization #NonProfitOrg #Outreach #MakingADifference #JustSayHi #EndingHomelessness #Success #Gratitude #StreetsTeamEnterprises #Donate

In honor of #GivingTuesdayNow, we wanted to share this clip of our Team Member, Lawrence, sharing his experience with homelessness & the resilience it's taken to overcome difficult challenges. Lawrence, and so many others in our Berkeley community, have the strength & resilience to carry on & work hard to better their own lives. Through DST, we support our TMs in acheiving their goals. Many of our unhoused community are sheltering without place during #COVID19 & today you can help support them! #TogetherWeHelp our Berkeley community better itself & those who love this special place 💛 Please donate at https://bit.ly/2RYxS2c and your donation will be matched by Sobratto Family Foundation!

Just a little homemade bottling station for ya! Some of our staff are volunteering their space & time to bottle hand sanitizer for the most vulnerable in our community. Thanks to UC Berkeley scientists, Abrar & Yvonne, we're able to bottle, label, and distribute sanitizer across the East Bay! . . . . #JustSayHi #EndingHomelessness #JoinTheMovement #DST #Socks #GivingBack #Humanity #Community #PeopleFirst #Support #COVID #StayHealthy #DignityFirst #Berkeley #CommunintyImpact #CleanCommunities #GivingBack #TeamMember #TrashTag #DST #ItsaWinWinWin
