It is key part of our programming to build a community that embraces equality, respect, discipline and teamwork. Through our morning runs on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, we create a common link between those experiencing homelessness and those who are not. Each team starts at 5:45 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from its respective locations.
Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer member with Back on My Feet! Our organization isn't possible without amazing people like yourself and we are excited to get you involved. Everyone interested in running with a Back on My Feet team is required to attend a 60-minute orientation.
At orientation, we will talk about the issue of homelessness, our mission, discuss the role of our volunteer members and answer all your questions. We will find a team for you to run with and we ask that you commit to running at least one morning per week on a consistent basis. Please sign up for more information about attending a volunteer orientation.
If you have any further questions, please contact Lena Burt, Program Director, at lena.burt@backonmyfeet.org.

Mission Statement
Back on My Feet combats homelessness through the power of running, community support, and essential employment and housing resources
Description
Back on My Feet seeks to revolutionize the way our society approaches homelessness. Our unique running-based model demonstrates that if you first restore confidence, strength, and self-esteem, individuals are better equipped to tackle the road ahead and move toward jobs, homes, and new lives. For all in need, we aim to provide: practical training and employment resources for achieving independence; an environment that promotes accountability; and a community that offers compassion and hope. For all with the capacity to serve-volunteers, donors, community and corporate partners-we seek to engage you in the profound experience of empowering individuals to achieve what once seemed impossible through the seemingly simple act of putting one foot in front of the other.
