800 children in Alachua County schools are experiencing homelessness.
Every child in our community should have a bed to sleep in at night.
Since 1998, Family Promise of Gainesville has provided families experiencing homelessness with compassionate care that includes shelter, case management, education, housing, meals and transportation until they can transition to a home of their own.
Diversion
We work to avoid the trauma of a family losing their home before it happens.
Shelter
Our shelter models ensure the right fit for a family.
​
​
Stabilization
Programming like tenancy training after shelter helps families remain housed.
​
Housing
We provide affordable housing through apartments that we own.
