With Your Help Family Promise – Salt Lake Makes a Lasting Impact For Families in Our Community
Homelessness is a growing concern in Utah—particularly among families. In fact, Utah saw a 17% increase in homelessness among families from 2015 to 2016.
We work with the faith community to minimize the impact of homelessness. Thanks to the generosity of donors and support from the community, we are able to help families find short-term solutions to homelessness and long-term stability for years to come.
Assistance from donors allows us to provide families with 2-3 months of rent-free housing which helps them prepare for future rent payments.
We have 8 Family Promise Housing apartments that are available to families after they complete the church program. Families sign a 1-year lease and work with our case management team to build skills needed to maintain long-term stability.
84% of the families we work with remain housed 2 years after completing our program.
