Bay Area First Step (BAFS) transitional housing facility has capacity for 30 residents at any given time. Residents appreciate the facility because it is a safe place to live while they make life changes and work toward recovery goals. The peer support from residents provides momentum for recovery. In addition to the transitional housing, BAFS provides 20 apartment units for recovering persons and their families, with approximately 45 individuals living in the apartments at any given time. Some of these individuals serve as mentors or volunteers. Since opening, more than 700 clients and their families have been served. In carrying out the goals of helping people build support systems for reentry into the community and engaging families in recovery services, Bay Area First Step interacts with a number of agencies across the state. Our mission is to provide a safe, supportive alcohol and drug free environment, assisting those we serve to affect their own recovery. Bay Area First Step, Inc., is a 501C(3) nonprofit organized in 1995.
