When you meet Robert Hofmann, one of the first things he will tell you is how privileged he feels to have a job that enables him to connect with and get to know people from different life paths. Robert has been involved with Simpson Housing Services for eleven years and recently became the shelter manager.
Simpson Housing Services has been selected to provide on-site staff support at Beacon Interfaith Housing Collaborative’s affordable housing building 66 West in Edina. 66 West will include 39 studio apartments, shared common areas, and offices for onsite supportive services. Supportive services are the key to helping young adults who have been on the streets or in shelters or otherwise lacking a stable home to be part of a supportive community and to achieve their employment and educational goals.
