"Good neighbors are the cornerstone of thriving communities." ?? It is the goal of OPCS to develop strong connections with our neighbors. We’d like to thank Holladay Fine Arts Magnet Elementary School, our next-door neighbor to our Center for Housing First, for inviting our Chief Development Officer, Monica Durand, to read to a class of first grade students! Monica had a wonderful time connecting with the students and staff, and we look forward to future opportunities to continue building community with our South Park Neighborhood. #workingtogether #thrivingcommunities
