The crisis of COVID19 brought to stark reality the gaps that exist in access. Basic Needs are shelter food and now a cell phone, as it serves as the access point for ALL needs. This small handheld device holds the world of opportunity and connection for all of us, especially those marginalized by homelessness. In partnership with T-Mobile, TRC is working towards its goal of distributing 500 cell phones into the community, with six months of data. For a donation of $200, you can help reconnect a person we serve to the world.

In the time of COVID-19, through the crisis and into recovery, the divide between those who “have” and those who “have not” continues to deepen.
The Reciprocity Collective has moved and shifted in the new spaces to find challenges to address, gaps to fill and individuals and families to reach and connect with, continuing to work collaboratively in the community with our partners and our constituents.

Community Partners
The entirety of the mission of TRC is fulfilled in collaboration with our partners in the business, nonprofit sectors and members of community.
Our Partners
TRC collaborates with a broad spectrum of Community Partners. The contributions of those partners are not monetary but the sharing of energy, talent and resources for highly effective and collaborative service delivery for our participants. Our NGO partners allow use to use their spaces and to collaborate with their staff. They connect us with additional resources and we reciprocate with the same. Our Business partners employ our participants and allow us to integrate their workspaces to train and support not only our participants but the management and staff of the business, creating a shift in the workplace culture to be more welcoming and inclusive to marginalized individuals. TRC continually and strategically works to expand our collaboration in the community to serve our participants well and to ever improve on that service.

The Reciprocity Collective does not seek funding through government sources and nor will we in accordance with our mission and strategic plan. TRC believes that the strength of the community lies in the connections and relationships we build and nurture. Reciprocity is defined as: a mutual, dependence, action or influence...a mutual exchange of privileges. That means that we all contribute and invest, in big ways and small and we all benefit by being a part of a community that we are all proud to be a part of.
