We sit down with Chris Ulery of Saving Grace Advocacy to talk about crisis triage, the hidden mechanics of homelessness, and why flexible emergency help can unlock long-term change. Chris shares what it takes to build trust, coordinate with other agencies, and protect dignity while serving neighbors who are one setback away from losing everything.
- How Saving Grace starts at St. Paul's and grows through constant pivots
- Triage as a strategy when rent, food, and utilities are on the line
- Filling service gaps other agencies cannot cover due to rules and boundaries
- Practical barriers to work like IDs, birth certificates, steel-toed boots, and prescriptions
- The space crunch created by a generous community and the need for a warehouse-style setup
- COVID quarantine support with Lexington House and why relationships make services stick
- Eight dimensions of wellness and goal-setting across the whole person
- Partnership habits that reduce duplication across local nonprofits
- Life Cycle bikes as transportation, agency, and job retention support
- Stories that show how one smart intervention can restore income and housing
- Why homelessness often starts with one medical issue, one job loss, or one broken car
- Leadership advice for the next director: stay open to change and lead with respect
