John-Paul is LCBH’s Supportive Services Director. He works to help clients achieve their goals. These primarily consist of finding new housing but can also include looking for new employment, cleaning up their credit, or finding other needed resources in the community.

He says that the best part of his job is “getting to meet extraordinary people who are still going despite incredibly difficult barriers in their lives. They are heroes to me! I also love my colleagues here!”

John-Paul first began working in the area of housing in 1992 in Seattle, Washington with the Seattle Housing Authority. He received his B.A. in Speech Communications and has also studied theology and other languages. “My deepest passion in life is God!” John-Paul says. “I grew up in the Philippines the son of missionaries. I am blessed to be a part of the team at LCBH and am deeply grateful for the opportunity to be of service!”
