Chaplain Lincoln, believes in you. He believes that through your own unique experiences and encounters with life, through struggles and joys of the spirit, can people find deeper purpose and meaning. 

As a harm reductionist, abolitionist, and warrior for peace and justice, Lincoln accepts that imperfections, addictions, careers, goals and relationships are part of the human condition. We often can fail and succeed in the same day. That tension requires a spiritual caregiver who understands your nuance and complexity of life from trauma, to LGBTQIA issues, to divorce, grief, or addiction.

Chaplain Lincoln comes to Hopebase as a graduate of Starr King School for the Ministry, and completed their clinical residency with the houseless population of San Francisco's Tenderloin District. When he isn't working in harm reduction or serving as a spiritual caregiver, Chaplain Lincoln can be found working in his food forest ministry, going to punk and metal concerts, playing with his 4 dogs, or walking around one of Philadelphia's many city parks. Welcome to Hope!
