Urban Alchemy is the shelter operator for various Safe Rest Villages in Portland. They are a social enterprise that engages with situations where extreme poverty meets homelessness, mental illness and addiction. Urban Alchemy hires returning citizens and seeks out their life skills. Most of their team have served prison sentences in a confined environment where their survival depends on their ability to read people in unpredictable situations. Urban Alchemy recognizes that both the self-awareness and personal development gained on the inside is one of the most valuable gifts their employees can give back on the outside. Urban Alchemy seeks to recognize the humanity in those who are struggling and treat them how they wished others had once treated them.
