If you’re like most people, you don’t carry cash as often as you used to. After all, you can do anything from ordering dinner to catching a ride home with the push of a button.

Now you can do the same to support people working their way out of homelessness! The Street Sense Media App allows you to purchase print newspapers directly from our vendors even when you don’t have cash. Simply download, connect your payment option, and find your favorite vendor. Empowering your community has never been so easy!

We are committed to providing our clients, customers, members (“you”, “your” or “them”) with exceptional service. Providing exceptional service may involve the collection, use and, at times, the disclosure of your Personal Information. Protecting your Personal Information is one of our highest priorities.

This is to continue to provide exceptional service to you and to comply with all laws regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information. We will inform you of why and how we collect, use and disclose Personal Information; obtain your consent, as required; and handle Personal Information according to applicable law. Our privacy commitment includes ensuring the accuracy, confidentiality, and security of your Personal Information and allowing you to request access to, and correction of, your personal information.
