Sulzbacher Center
The Sulzbacher Center is the only comprehensive homeless facility in Jacksonville, Florida where the average stay is two months. A case manager works with every client to develop a plan to transition back into the community.
==Roots==
I.M. Sulzbacher was a successful insurance broker and civic leader who entered politics during the Jacksonville Consolidation era and was elected to the Jacksonville City Council in 1968. Out of his concern for the homeless, he helped raise awareness about the problem, and convinced his fellow council members of the need for the city to help. With the support of city administrator Lex Hester, the construction of a homeless facility on city land was included in the 1993 River City Renaissance plan. The Sulzbacher Center signed a 25-year lease of the property in 1995. I. M. Sulzbacher served as a center board member who led fundraising efforts and donated his own money and time. He died on June 5, 2001, but the center became a lasting tribute to his name.〔Littlepage, Ron: ("HOMELESS CENTER: Jacksonville cares about the underprivileged" ) Florida Times-Union, June 28, 1998〕

After Hester's sudden death at age 64, the ''Lex Hester Family Dining Room'' was dedicated in his memory on May 14, 2001. Linda Lanier, executive director of the center stated that Hester had, "quietly—behind the scenes as usual—made sure the homeless center was part of the ''River City Renaissance'' plan, and also that long-range funding for the center was in place. ...() appropriate thing to do was to name the room in honor of the man who so richly deserves it."〔Carter, John: ("Center honors Hester" ) First Coast Community, May 23, 2001〕
