Who We Are
Family Promise Fights Homelessness... One Family at a Time!
Family Promise partners with families who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless by helping them get back on their feet so they can create a stable lifestyle for their children.
Family homelessness is becoming more and more prevalent in our community. Families with children are the fastest-growing segment of the homeless population. Family Promise is doing everything in our power to end family homelessness....one family at a time. Most of the families we help are just like ours, but they haven’t been able to overcome a difficult situation. That’s where Family Promise can help!
Family Promise is a national model that helped thousands of children and hundreds of families build a strong foundation for their family’s future through providing temporary housing, case management, and hospitality. With the help of a network and hundreds of congregational volunteers, our families have found futures full of hope and possibility.
When we help parents meet their basic needs and give them the opportunity to create a vision for the future, their dreams of providing a better life for their children are realized. This changes our community and improves the lives of future generations.
