Our mission 

"Empowering transformation through art, entrepreneurship, and purposeful employment—turning homelessness into hope, healing into strength, and creativity into lasting change."

Welcome to ArtOutReach San Diego

Art changes lives—and for unhoused artists working toward stability, art can mean everything. At ART/OutReach, we use trauma-informed expressive art and entrepreneurial skills training to help unhoused and recently housed individuals transform their artistic talent into viable, sustainable careers.
 
Our unique, science-based approach reduces trauma symptoms, builds resilience, and empowers artists with skills to produce and sell decorative and commercial art. When you support us, you invest directly in dignity, hope, and real opportunities for creative people in our community.
