The safety net is unraveling for families experiencing poverty, housing instability and homelessness, meaning fewer meals for children, fewer safe places to sleep and fewer options for parents in crisis. In fact, FamilyAid has seen a 53% increase in homeless prevention referrals this year over last year.

Despite these challenges, we are determined to continue supporting children and parents with hope, encouragement and stability. Your support makes it possible.

We do things differently — and achieve better results. Through our two-generation, whole-family approach, we provide the tools, resources and hope that families need to achieve better and brighter futures. Working with our dedicated support staff, 97% of our families who move to permanent housing are still stably housed a year later.

With cuts to state and federal safety net programs, we anticipate an even greater demand for our services in the months to come.

Please make your year-end gift by December 31 to ensure kids’ dreams are still coming true — no matter what they’re going through.
