About People Loving Nashville

People Loving Nashville (PLN) focuses on the healing power of community. We are a grassroots organization whose goal is to bring relief to those in need in the form of food, drink, clothing, and emergency supplies. Through our numerous, growing programs and outreaches, we seek to form relationships and offer long-lasting support for the most vulnerable of our city. We have three programs that build off each other and within our programs we have multiple outreaches for people to join us by volunteering. Our Street Program - Includes our outreach team daily visiting friends in encampments and our Monday street outreach. We believe in going to our friends, instead of making someone come to us. This program is where we identify those ready to start their journey from homelessness to homefulllness. Our Homefullness Program - This is a housing-first approach program. We have a team of outreach workers who walk the journey of getting a friend off the streets and into housing. This journey on average takes six months to one year. We have additional outreaches throughout the week to provide additional support to a newly housed individual. Our Restoration Program - This program is holistically created to serve the body, mind, and soul of our friends recently housed. We recognize the trauma they have faced and through strategic partnerships provide therapy, recovery classes, and low-barrier job opportunities. Our Outreaches: Within all of our outreaches, we bring relief starting with food, clothing, and community. As we create a safe and consistent community environment we work to build bridges to further resources from IDs to housing navigation. Our outreaches are Monday Night Street Outreach, our largest outreach. Tuesday + Thursday Homefullness Outreaches, Wednesday Encampement Outreach, and Wednesday + Friday Restoration Outreaches.
