No One Should Sleep on a Floor

In a world where we often focus on long-term goals and strategic planning, it's important to remember the value of immediate, tangible change. Recently, I had the privilege of featuring Treger Strasberg on our Forbes Quadel podcast, and her work is a powerful reminder of this truth. Treger leads an extraordinary organization dedicated to ensuring that no one has to sleep on the floor—a mission that goes beyond just providing affordable housing. It’s about creating a sense of home, dignity, and belonging for those who need it most.

Treger’s organization operates with a simple yet profound belief: Change can—and should—happen now. Watching her team in action is nothing short of inspiring. They don’t just talk about making a difference; they roll up their sleeves and get to work, transforming empty spaces into warm, welcoming homes.

At Quadel, we share this belief in the importance of making a difference now. While we work tirelessly to address systemic issues in affordable housing, we also understand the value of taking immediate action to improve lives. Whether it’s through streamlining operations, improving compliance, or enhancing customer service, we’re committed to ensuring that everyone not only has a safe, comfortable place to call home but also feels respected and treated with dignity.

If you haven’t yet had the chance, I encourage you to watch the video of Treger’s work. Prepare for your heart to be nudged, and perhaps even moved to take action in your own way. Because when we all come together to create change now, we can build a world where everyone has a place to rest, a place to dream, and a place to call home.
