What We Do
Family Promise works with homeless families to tailor individualized plans to help them take the necessary steps toward lasting independence.
All Family Promise guest families receive:
- Overnight accommodations at a local congregation
- 3 meals a day
- Intensive case management
- Family Day Center/office with internet access, guest phone, laundry and showers
- Transportation assistance to school, work, etc.
- Social support from volunteers
- Linkage with needed social and educational services
Cost Effective
The Family Promise model of care costs 1/3 less to operate than traditional shelters. Through the generosity and dedication of our volunteers and local host congregations, every dollar donated is matched by more than $3 of in-kind goods and services!
