Tonight, there are scores of children and parents sleeping in their cars or even on the street. With winter coming to Massachusetts, we cannot let this crisis continue.

The situation is dire — but there is hope.

FamilyAid works at every level to end child and family homelessness. With your support, we provide children and parents with safe places to stay and help them find jobs and affordable, permanent housing. We also connect people with community resources and services, from summer camps to primary care doctors.

We do things differently — and achieve better results. Statewide, sheltered families spend an average of two years in shelter. In FamilyAid housing, it’s just 11 months because more than half the families we work with find permanent housing within a year. And, 98% of families who move to permanent housing are still there one year later.

Massachusetts faces a homelessness crisis this winter — but we have the solution. Please make your gift to FamilyAid today to help give more children and parents a safe place to lay their heads at night.
