Vision

Our Vision: The quality of life in Philadelphia is improved when everyone has the resources they need to live with dignity, contribute to their community, and pursue their aspirations. At Broad Street Ministry, we practice radical hospitality. We embrace all individuals of our community with enduring empathy and care. We reach beyond the societal norms of service, confront the injustices that oppress our most vulnerable members, and fundamentally shift the expectations of how we engage with guests, staff, volunteers, and our community partners. We sustain a fervor that one day this practice of hospitality will be pervasive and no longer be considered a radical act.

Goals

1. 1.We will evaluate our existing programs to cultivate services that reach more guests. We will invest in interconnectedness, visibility within the community, and accessibility.
2. 2.We will expand our impact through partnerships with other service providers and our commercial and residential neighbors, sharing our Radical Hospitality service model with them.
3. 3.We will grow our impact by evaluating and clarifying roles and responsibilities and prioritizing communication; self-evaluation; diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice; and lived experience.
