At San Francisco-based Delancey Street Foundation, the aspiring MBAs are the ones who take notes. It wasn't always that way. When the organization was founded in 1971, it consisted of ten recovering addicts and one criminal psychologist, all living in one cramped apartment. As the ad-hoc rehabilitation program for addicts, prostitutes, and thieves evolved into an unorthodox combination of residential center and entrepreneurial incubator, the experts came calling. Despite the criticism, Delancey flourished.
