Back on my Feet

Back on My Feet, a national organization operating in 14 major cities across the US, combats homelessness through the power of running, community support and essential employment and housing resources.

Back on My Feet uses running and community to motivate and support individuals every step of the way from homelessness to independence. Their success is measured not only by the health impact of miles run, but also by how many individuals obtain education, employment, and housing.
