    Description

    HomeFirst provides opportunities to unhoused adults in a safe, private, and secure environment.

    We are looking for someone who can teach our participants how to properly care for their furry friends. Information would include tips for proper grooming, diet, how to control pests, common pet ailments, resources for pet needs...etc.

    By providing a workshop that teaches participants how to care for their companion, you will help participants reduce their pet expenses and build skills they will need when they secure housing.

    We hope you will join us in supporting our unhoused neighbors.

    Location

    On-site
    San Jose, California, US
