EDEN's mission is to provide housing solutions to people facing the challenges of housing insecurities and homelessness.
Vision:
EDEN recognizes that housing is a basic right of all people, and the first step in helping those vulnerable and disadvantaged transform their lives. We envision, that through our efforts, homelessness will be brief and rare; and every family will have a safe, secure place to call home. We believe housing serves as a foundation to build stable lives, advance independence, and fulfill aspirations.
Equal Employment Opportunity:
Equal employment opportunity in full compliance with applicable law will be provided to all persons without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or other characteristics protected by law.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI):
EDEN's primary goal is to transition people from housing crisis to housing stability. We believe our vision to end housing insecurity and homelessness in Northeast Ohio can only be achieved when we embrace diversity, equity, and inclusion as both agency values and practices.
