Our Work

Family Promise is a nonprofit organization committed to helping low-income families achieve lasting independence.

 

The problem of poverty is complex. It won't yield to a simple solution or a quick fix. It requires an integrated approach that begins with meeting immediate needs but reaches much further to help people achieve independence and to alleviate the root causes of poverty.

 

Our strategy is to focus our efforts on five programs that work together in a holistic, integrated approach. Because the five programs support one another, each of them is far more effective than it could be alone.
  • Interfaith Hospitality Network   ( 1 Article )
     

    Our networks of congregations and volunteers meet homeless families' immediate needs for food, shelter, and comprehensive services.
  • Family Mentoring   ( 1 Article )
     

    To prevent homelessness, we train volunteers to help at-risk families achieve goals and maintain self-sufficiency.
  • Just Neighbors   ( 1 Article )
     

    Our interactive educational program raises awareness of poverty and homelessness as the first step in establishing community-based responses.
  • Community Initiatives   ( 1 Article )
     

    We foster local IHN outgrowth programs, such as transitional housing, housing renovation, job training, health care services, childcare and literacy.
  • Voices Uniting   ( 0 Articles )
     

    Volunteers work together to promote policies that alleviate poverty and improve the well-being of low-income families.
