New Partnerships and Old Friends: Results From PHC 69

Highlights

37 Stylists joined us for the first time from San Francisco Institute of Esthetics and Cosmetology

 One of our volunteers was also a former participant giving back:

“When I was homeless, someone took me to a PHC and you took me to HOT team who put me in hotel and eventually to the studio apt I live in now… so I just say thank you best by giving back.”

Providers Share Their Experience

“It was like helping someone become a whole new person!” Our new partner San Francisco Institute of Esthetics and Cosmetology brought over 35 stylists to PHC 69. They expressed that they had been really looking forward to it and happy that their school had organized the opportunity.

“We plan around the PHC’s.” Our long-time partner Planned Parenthood of California is such an important part of our events, it’s important that people can access STI testing, safer sex supplies, and information. And it turns out we are just as important to them! They find our events an efficient and helpful venue to reach many people at one time and make sure to get these important services out into the community. A mutually beneficial partnership!
