FamilyShelter

Our Mission
The Mission of the Family Shelter is to provide emergency shelter in a stable living environment for homeless children and their parents and help our residents build life skills needed to regain independence.

We work towards this mission by providing a secure, structured environment where families can regain a sense of stability; responding to identified client needs with a variety of supportive services; and promoting healthy, stable families who are connected to a network of community supporters and opportunities.

Established in 1979, Family Shelter is the only agency in the Midlands area providing these needed services to children and families experiencing homelessness.  Today, Family Shelter works with homeless families giving them hope and opportunities to regain their independence during their time of crisis.
