Brick by brick, the

Brick by brick, the river remembers,
stories carried on the Mississippi’s bend.
A city that bends but does not break—
strong in its neighborhoods,
strong in its people.

From corner stores to church bells,
from summer heat to winter cheers,
hope echoes through every street.

Here, resilience isn’t just history—
it’s neighbors helping neighbors,
music drifting from open doors,
and pride stitched into every block.

So today we celebrate the spirit that rises,
again and again—
the heart of a city,
and the wonderful people who make it home.

Happy 314 Day!

This week, we bid farewell to one of the pillars of the Housing Choice Voucher Program, Demetrius Hicks, who served SLHA with dedication and heart for over three decades. Throughout her years of service, Demetrius was more than a colleague—she was a steady guide, a trusted voice, and a compassionate advocate for the families we serve.

Her work touched countless lives. Behind every file processed, every call answered, and every challenge resolved was a family finding stability, dignity, and a place to call home. Demetrius understood that housing is more than a program—it is the foundation for opportunity, safety, and hope. Because of her commitment, many families were able to take meaningful steps toward brighter futures.

To her coworkers (or rather extended family), Demetrius was a source of wisdom, patience, and encouragement. She shared her knowledge generously, supported her team through challenges, and helped shape the culture of care and service that defines our work today.
While we will deeply miss her presence at SLHA, the legacy she leaves behind will continue through the families she helped, the colleagues she mentored, and the standards of compassion and excellence she set for all of us.

We thank Demetrius for her extraordinary service and wish her every happiness in the next chapter of her journey.
