Family Promise

About Us

Family Promise is a national nonprofit organization that works with families experiencing and at risk of homelessness. We provide a comprehensive solution that includes homelessness prevention services, emergency shelter, and stabilization support. Founded in Summit, NJ, in 1988, Family Promise empowers hundreds of thousands of families every year with the skills and tools necessary to achieve lasting independence. We work with existing resources in the communities we serve, corporate and nonprofit partnerships, and many volunteers across the country to implement unique and effective programs that help families regain stability.
