Alaskan Way board members were at Project Homeless Connect in September. Pictured from left to right are Jessie Talivaa, Ziona Brownlow, Theresa Hankins, Christopher McClelland, and Liam Slater.
Alaskan Way is a new nonprofit based in Anchorage with a focus on serving elderly and medically fragile individuals who are unable to meet their Activities of Daily Living (ADL) needs-a population often overlooked in traditional shelter and housing systems.
Started by Theresa Hankins, the nonprofit is in the funding stage so that it can open its doors. The nonprofit's website has more information, but it's centered on providing 24/7 staff support, personal care assistance, case management services, life skills, and nutritious meals.
