OUR GOALS
Our goals guide how we support families, mobilize the community, and measure progress. Together, they reflect a commitment to keeping families together while helping them move toward permanent housing and continued stability.
Ambitious and Achievable
Family Promise helps families with children facing homeless situations find permanent housing and, through our continuum of supportive services and partners, help them achieve sustainable self-sufficiency.
Engaging Volunteers
We mobilize more than 200 dedicated volunteers from 28 North Shore Congregations who make a tremendous difference in families’ lives—and in their communities.
Keeping Families Together
Family Promise will ensure families with children remain intact during their housing crisis so dads can stay with their family and boys over the age of 13 remain with their siblings and parents.
Continued Support
Family Promise continues to work with families we serve in assuring they remain self-sufficient.
Achieving Success
Family Promise maintains an 85% or greater rate of families we serve moving into permanent housing.
Changing Perceptions
We help people understand what life in poverty is like. Family Promise builds greater understanding of problems — and of solutions.
