Health
We believe that health encompasses our individual and collective state of well-being, not merely the absence of illness. BSA provides preventative physical and behavioral health services and related community programming, as well as testing and
treatment services and hygiene products.
Housing
We believe that housing goes beyond having shelter to making a home, to having what we need to feel at home, and feeling a sense of community and safety.
Food
We believe that food provides not only sustenance, but nourishment and enjoyment. Food brings individuals, communities, and cultures together in dialogue, cultural exchange, celebration, and comfort.
Identity
​
We believe that identity comprises not only our physical and social characteristics and traits, but how we perceive and understand ourselves and move through the world. A key aspect of this is our right and ability to groom and dress
ourselves in a way that dignifies our humanity and reflects who we are
