Patrick Hicks was one of the first residents of the center when it opened. Like many other former residents, he found a personal relationship with Jesus and returned to normal life. Not long after getting back on his feet, Patrick was diagnosed with cancer. He believed so strongly in the mission of the Center that when he passed, he left everything he owned to the center to be a blessing to as many others as possible. To honor, not only his gift, but the drastic change he made, we are proud to have named our center the Patrick Hicks Mens Center.
