We have strong support from Civic Leaders - including Mayor Daniel Lurie, Gov. Gavin Newsom, CA State Legislative leaders, Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, and CA State Agency Secretaries Crowfoot, Garcia and Snider- Ashtari, as well as dozens of tribal and community partners.
We attained multiple Green Awards for sustainable design and carbon sequestration including from the U.S. Forest Service and the U.S. Green Building Council.
“I stand shoulder to shoulder with Friendship House and its Village Project today, tomorrow, and in the years to come. Together, we’re going to get this done.”
