Who We Are

Family Promise of Pierce County is the most effective program to help homeless families because it provides a comprehensive approach to addressing the root causes of homelessness, including:

• Emergency shelter: Family Promise provides families with a safe and supportive place to stay while they work towards permanent housing.

• Case management: Family Promise case managers work with families to develop personalized plans to address their unique needs, such as finding employment, accessing healthcare, and enrolling children in school.

• Financial assistance: Family Promise provides families with financial assistance to help them cover basic expenses, such as food, transportation, and childcare.

• Education and employment programs: Family Promise offers a variety of education and employment programs to help families develop the skills they need to achieve self-sufficiency.

Family Promise is also unique in its community-based approach. Families stay at host congregations and receive meals and support from volunteers. This helps to create a sense of community and belonging for families, and it also helps to raise awareness of homelessness in the community.
