About Family Promise ®
Family Promise of Northern New Castle County helps
homeless families with children move toward lasting independence by providing a
safe place to eat and sleep, intensive case management, life skills training,
support, and encouragement. We do this through a network of congregations that
host the families directly in their houses of worship, staffed by caring
volunteers who have put their faith into action. We have successfully placed
over 80% of our families into their own housing in less than 70 days since we
began services in 2010. We are a
housing-first model with wrap-around services continuing for the families for
at least 6mo-1year after they graduate from our network and move into their own
housing. We are growing and adding a Case Manger to our team to provide quality
services and to increase how many families we can serve.
