Honored to be a part of this project as a Homeward Bound of Marin board member.
Five years in the making, our first formerly homeless family has moved into Oma Village ~ a brand new affordable housing community in Novato, CA built by Homeward Bound. See photo gallery and watch news footage of Rev. Betty “Oma” Pagett speaking about the project. (“Oma” means grandmother in German)

So happy that all hurdles were overcome to make this wonderful Village a reality. Betty is a true and loving force of nature. Thank you for all that you did to help bring Oma Village to life! (BTW, Betty is our friend and also performed our ceremony when Tom and I got married.) ❤
