Our organization follows a hybrid work structure where employees work both remotely and from the office, as needed.HFH is committed to the psychological wellness of its DHS employees and contracted staff, many of whom serve people experiencing homelessness (PEH), a marginalized group with complex biopsychosocial needs.
