Today, we celebrate Día de los Muertos. Rooted in Mexican culture, it’s a day of connection — sharing stories, celebrating memories, and finding strength in the legacies of loved ones. At LifeMoves, we take this opportunity to honor and respect the many ways our community remembers and celebrates those who came before us. #lifemoves #lifemovesorg #webelieve #diadelosmuertos #dayofthedead

Breaking the Cycle of Homelessness
About us
LifeMoves is the largest and most effective nonprofit committed to ending the cycle of homelessness for families and individuals in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties. Our successful and multi-faceted therapeutic service model combines clean, modern housing with intensive supportive services that promote dignity and respectfully motivate our clients to achieve autonomy. LifeMoves programs combat homelessness today – and tomorrow – by teaching comprehensive life skills that help our clients achieve long-term self-sufficiency, and effectively break the cycle of homelessness. Our innovative and effective program model requires accountability from our clients. The LifeMoves program helps clients understand the root cause of their homelessness and then focuses them on developing core competencies and the skills they need to succeed in the long-term. Similarly, our in-depth programming for children provides academic support to help bridge achievement gaps, and physical and mental health support to address the extensive issues caused by the trauma of homelessness. The focus is on maximizing opportunities for homeless youth to help them mature into self-sufficient adults and to end intergenerational poverty which leads to homelessness. The impact of LifeMoves programs and services is tremendous: Last year, 82% of families and 65% of individuals engaged in our shelter programs successfully returned to stable housing and self-sufficiency.

Meet the McConnell family! For over 10 years, Sari, Blake, and their children—Jacob, Ellis, and D—have embodied community spirit by donating diapers to LifeMoves every month. Their journey began on their daughter's first Thanksgiving when they delivered gift baskets to @First Step for Families, realizing the importance of basic necessities like diapers for new parents.

The primary factor pushing older adults into homelessness in California is the severe shortage of affordable housing. With housing costs skyrocketing, many seniors find themselves priced out of their communities. #lifemoves #lifemovesorg #webelieve #seniors #changemakers
