Our Mission

Family Promise is a nonprofit, non-denominational, volunteer-based organization, that opened its doors in the fall of 1998 to homeless families with children. The organization was originally named Interfaith Hospitality Network until early 2006. The name change consists of simple words that deliver a powerful message of hope.

The program is built on a foundation of grace and mercy. We partner with volunteers from local churches and community groups to provide supportive reassurance in a compassionate and non-judgmental manner. People dealing with homelessness often see themselves as failures, unworthy or less deserving than others. One of our goals is to surround every individual with acceptance, to help them realize their own self-worth and develop a personal sense of value. In short, Family Promise connects those we serve with people and programs that help them develop a new vision for themselves, their children, and the family unit.
