About this project

Fountain House has empowered people with serious mental illness since 1948. Due to increased attendance, Fountain House outgrew a space it leased from a private landlord in the South Bronx.

Matter supported Fountain House with site search and facilities planning to secure a location that could serve more members of the community.

Our nonprofit clients rely on us to translate complex real estate decisions into clear, actionable plans.
