"Under Laura Valdez's leadership, Mission Action has grown significantly, expanding from 45 employees and an $8-million budget in late 2018 to 165 employees and a $25-million budget today."
"The refurbished two-story, 10,000-square-foot space will include offices, a community conference room, a loading dock, and an atrium overlooking an open-plan office space."
"Valdez noted that the new location is close to bus lines that the community uses, enhancing accessibility and increasing the walking footprint."
"The site at Mission and 17th Street has a rich history, originally housing Redlick's Furniture after the 1906 earthquake and later becoming home to Thrift Town."
Mission Action is moving to a larger space at 2101 Mission St after 22 years on Valencia Street. The nonprofit, led by Laura Valdez, has expanded from 45 employees and an $8-million budget in 2018 to 165 employees and a $25-million budget today. The new 10,000-square-foot facility will feature offices, a community conference room, and a commercial kitchen. Valdez emphasized the importance of proximity to local transit for the community. Construction is expected to be completed by early June.
