Please know that I had created this project before knowing that

there actually already exists, an art

studio/gallery named “Sanctuary Art Center”here in Seattle. I hoped to get their permission to use the name while

integrating their program into the

project (indicated on level 10).

•Commercial Cont’d

•Note: The 26th floor of each of the 4 apartment buildings also houses a security office; a grocery & personal items store; vending center; community center; and computer labs – no apartments are found on this floor.

high-end security

Core Fundamentals Cont’dSanctuary Center is very geared for safety and security. There is a 10-12 foot perimeter fence surrounding the entire complex. Each perimeter side has a security office and an installed airport security style metal detector system and armed security. All weapons are confiscated. With the exception of the employee parking garage (which requires a key card and also has a security station), there is no way to get into the facility without going through security.

Core Fundamentals Cont’dIn the commercial part of the complex, depending upon the business at hand, each floor has its own security measures from the list as follows:

•Security offices •Cameras•Controlled entry points•Physical presence armed security•Elevator security codes

The resident buildings and rooms require entry via the resident room key/debit card. If someone loses their card, they have to go through security for a temporary replacement card in order to enter the building and room.

resident security

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

Knowing residents have usually experienced a hard or even violent life, Sanctuary Center is very concerned with resident’s physical safety and security. It is also very important they feel safe and secure. Sanctuary wants residents to feel at home yet protect themselves and personal property from any potential problems, as much as possible. That said, the following personal security measures have been taken:

•Each bedroom has a separate locked walk-in closet with dresser for each resident.

Core Fundamentals Cont’d•All bathrooms have 2 private commode stalls•All bathrooms have 2 private dressing rooms with showers•All bathrooms have a cabinet that has a lock on each shelf.•All beds are self-contained units or “cubbies” with electrical outlets and a built in light, fan & alarm. Each cubby/bed has a pull down door and can lock from the inside while the resident sleeps. •Lastly, each resident is assigned a locked kitchen cabinet.

Core Fundamentals Cont’d Resident rooms contain large screen, wall TV’s. They are bolted down. In the event the 4 roommates are viewing TV together but don’t wish to watch the same thing, the TV’s have the capability of splitting into 4 separate 20 inch screens. Each

split screen requires the use of a corresponding set of headphones for audio. The headphones are not necessary once the viewing has been restored to a single large screen.

parking garages

In addition to the employee parking garage under the commercial building, across the street from the Sanctuary Center, outside of the perimeter fence, is a security-based parking garage for residents and low-income housing renters. Key card ID’s are required for access.

property security

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

The resident buildings all have

cameras in the hallways and

laundry rooms. The furnishings within

each of the apartments

are bolted down and havean electronic alarm system signaling security

should someone try to remove it

from the room/building/property.

the economic system

Sanctuary’s economic system is strictly a debit and credit card system. Any cash or checks on premises must go through the bank located on the 2nd floor in the commercial area. The cash or check is deposited to the resident’s debit card. Said debit card also serves as the apartment key. Any type of door entry and financial transaction is recorded on this card.

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

The credit option of the card is available for

functioning individuals with jobs that pay a percentage

for their housing every day/week/month. This

allows them a safety net to maintain resident status

and pay when they are able. Payments to the credit card portion of the card are also

made at the bank or electronically. If for some

reason an individual cannot pay back credit borrowed,

they can submit a grant application.

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

The debit/credit/key card is required for payment anywhere in Sanctuary Center. This includes all vending centers, laundry machines, stores, doctors, dentists, opticians, business office, restaurants, etc. If a resident has steady employment or income, an automatic depositoption is available.

It’s a new day!

Credit is also available to non-earning, grant supported residents but with different rules.

If a resident works for room and board, the business office deposit’s the financial equivalent directly to the card on the set pay date.

It’s a new way!

drug & alcohol policy

Core Fundamentals Cont’d Sanctuary Center’s policy on alcohol and drugs is this. Though residents are free to drink outside the Center, any outside drugs and alcohol are considered contraband and are not allowed to be brought in from the outside. They will be confiscated at the security points. If a resident is a drug addict, the on-site medical personnel must oversee their habits and write prescriptions for their pharmaceutical needs. This also holds true for alcohol addiction, however, they present the prescription at an on-site store.

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

Individuals that are not alcoholic are free to buy alcohol in the on-site store

without prescription but cannot supply to any addicted residents.

Individuals with pattern behavior of extreme intoxication must go through a detoxification process, as many times as necessary, until determined chronic. Sanctuary Center offers two options:

1. Unconscious detoxification where doctors put them under for the necessary period;

2. Conscious participation in detoxification process.

healing broken wings

“If you want others to be happy, practice compassion; if you want to be happy, practice compassion.”

--- By The Dalai Lama

Sanctuary Center not only provides food and shelter, it strives to heal the psyche of the lost, wounded and discarded. To quote the refrain from a popular song in the 80’s by Mr. Mister, Sanctuary Center’s main function is to treat and teach the homeless to “take these broken wings and learn to fly again.”

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

Most important and critical to Sanctuary Center’s success, are the guiding principles and code of behaviors provided by Sanctuary Center’s variety of professional medical, psychiatric, holistic staff and life coaches.

Each resident is assigned a doctor and professional life coach during the evaluation and intake process.

Note: Though an intake evaluation and physical is required by an on-site physician, the resident is free to see a doctor of their own choosing outside Sanctuary Center at any time.

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.”

--- by Buddha

“Teach this triple truth to all:

security for the soul

Naturally, each professional’s code is purposeful in the encouragement towards healing, recovery, restoration to productive lives, self-respect, compassion, respect for others, and embracing diversity.

Core Fundamentals Cont’d

“Our sorrows and wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion.” --- By Buddha

In closing

“I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion, and elimination of ignorance, selfishness, and greed.”

- by The Dalai Lama
