Our Mission

Henry's Place exists to build a third space rooted in liberation and justice, starting with two simple things: caring for cats and serving coffee. How we run this business matters as much as what we sell. Sliding-scale pricing, participatory management, and community partnership aren't extras we're tacking on. They're the foundation.

Core Values

Self-Determination

You decide how you spend your time here. So do the cats.

Radical Accessibility

Cost, mobility, language, and sensory needs should not decide who gets to be here.

Dignity

Everyone here is treated with respect. That part is not conditional.

Equity

Treating everyone the same is not the same as being fair. We put resources where they are needed most.

Consent

Nothing happens to you, or to a cat, without a yes.
