In order to pursue a more personal impact on our residents and the greater community, Embrace was born in 1999. Embrace adopted the mission “Building homes, creating communities & enriching lives” to expand FFAH’s mission of “Create safe, comfortable, & affordable housing.”
Embrace currently serves 2326 units spanning over 22 family and senior properties, and our footprint continues to grow. Our primary goal is to help our tenants overcome barriers to success. We do this largely by tailoring individualized programming that connects residents to local community programs, facilitates on site workshops, builds protective factors, links them with natural supports, and so much more! The best part about our services? They are offered to residents at no additional cost!

My family and I are very grateful for the help you all have given us, like the jackets, Christmas presents, school supplies, and especially the food you give bi-weekly.
There isn’t one thing that you have done in this program that I don’t like. I get to do things that I’ve never had the chance to do before like make gingerbread houses or learn how to make slime.
At Northgate Terrace in Oakland, senior activities includes a lunch and exercise program, bingo nights and twice-monthly activity excursions around the city.
