About Us
Homeward Bound of Marin is a community nonprofit with the mission of "opening doors to safety, dignity, hope and independence" and a goal of "ending homelessness with training, housing and hope."
Homeward Bound is Marin County's main provider of shelter and residential services for homeless families and individuals, serving approximately 1,000 people per year in 17 inter-related residential programs.
Our overarching goal is to end homelessness in Marin County. To that end, we offer supportive services designed to end homelessness in the life of every person served, whatever their circumstances.
Homeward Bound also offers hands-on employment training at Fresh Starts Culinary Academy. Our graduates also can gain on-the-job experience as employees in our mission-driven businesses: The Key Room event venue and annexes, plus Wagster Treats premium dog biscuits.
