To the #WhateverItTakes community:
We are proud to share our 2025 Annual Report, because transparency is more important than ever and what we are doing is working.
This year, BACS’ 564 full-time first responders showed up 24/7/365 for our community’s most vulnerable members. Through unfathomable challenges, we remained guided by the principle that selfless service is justice – and that housing and healing are possible for everyone.
