Our third episode of PROJECT : CONNECT features MARYAH (Metro Area Real Estate Professionals For Young Adult Housing), and their charitable efforts to The Center’s Sunburst Youth Housing Project. In this clip, founding member Richard Woods discusses MARYAH’s inception, and what it does for the community.

About PROJECT : CONNECT

The reason behind our podcast is that we lost one of our beloved title reps to suicide a few years ago, and have since then made community involvement on the issues that impact our everyday lives and San Diego community one of our corporate cornerstones. We strive to emulate our motto of Good People Doing Great Work.

The Sunburst Youth Housing Project helps at-risk and homeless adults aged 18-24 by supplying affordable housing. The project specializes in LGBTQ+ and HIV+ youth. Before the program, these high-risk youth were living in the streets or public spaces, many after being ejected from their homes due to their sexual orientation or gender identity.
