What We Do
Since our founding in 1953, BACS has become a local leader in homelessness prevention programs, facing the housing crisis head on through rapid re-housing, targeted outreach for people experiencing homelessness and support navigating the web of services, purchasing housing across the Bay Area to house people who would otherwise be homeless, and much more. BACS also provides recovery-oriented behavioral health services across the spectrum of need.
Our programs span northern and central California and focus on doing ‘whatever it takes’ to help individuals stay out of institutional care and stay connected to their communities.
All of our programs seek to support the “whole person” with whatever they need to thrive.
"The BACS staff are my people. I've fallen out with other organizations without getting into housing because they're judgmental or don't call me back or don't seem to care. But BACS builds you up so you can succeed and then has your back every step of the way."
— Andre, Full Service Partnership (FSP) Program
