Background and Discussion:
The Family Assistance/Chaplaincy Unit is currently located at 49 San Jacinto St., a space that does not offer parking or easy access for visiting staff and family members that the unit supports. The current space is also too small to allow the unit to operate effectively.

Expected Impact:
A larger, cleaner, and more inviting workspace will enhance this unit's efficiency, boost productivity, and allow for new projects and initiatives. Ideally, the new space will also allow for visitor parking and ease of access, which should encourage greater participation in the program.

Alternative Options:
Continue to function inefficiently and ineffectively in an inadequate space.

Alignment with Goal(s):
X Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
_ Transportation
_ Flooding
_ Environment
X Governance and Customer Service
