Engage Communities
We bring together partners and resources to stabilize families in housing.
Shelter Support
We offer emergency shelter to families experiencing homelessness through our innovative shelter model; using existing space like congregations and volunteers motivated by compassion. Working with community resources, we provide comprehensive and targeted services, including extensive case management, at 1/3 the cost of traditional shelter. And it works!
Your congregation can help your neighbors by providing:
-
Space- Turn your worship site into a pop up shelter for up to four families one week at a time, four times a year.
-
Service- Shop for and prepare meals for families in shelter at your worship site or in a hotel.
-
Support- Show families the love and connection they need as they work to uplift themselves.
Affordable Housing
Together, we can help families in housing crisis move into affordable housing, elevate their wages, and build a stronger future.
Our model combines:
-
Vetted Families- Our case managers will connect you with families that can afford FMR, be exceptional neighbors, and strengthen your community engagement.
-
Case Management Support- To ensure a smooth transition and a promising trajectory, families will work with a case manager for one year after moving to your property.
-
A Collaborative Approach- We assist families in building economic mobility while you provide a safe home with a rental rate conducive to their primary needs.
