In just under two months, in the midst of a global pandemic, India, while working with our Pathway to Housing Case Manager, was able to secure permanent housing! India successfully completed our program and now has a home of her own to show for it.

Since the pandemic began, many items have become hard to find. We've had a tough time finding face masks recently. Luckily, one generous supporter dropped off dozens of home made masks yesterday!

These masks will ensure the safety of our staff and families!

Despite having to close down our Hospitality Network, we’re still working hard to house families in need. Last week we moved Nateefa into her new home!

Crossroads Restaurant shut down yesterday. They donated a substantial amount of food we can use to make sandwiches, for the families in our care.

It’s important that during times like these that we come together as a community. Thank you Crossroads!

Thank you to everyone who came out for our Annual Celebration last night!

Special thanks to 21st District Rep. Mike Ramone and Senator Jack Walsh for stopping by and expressing their appreciation of our efforts and their dedication to ending family homelessness in Delaware.

Homelessness forces people to do whatever they can to shelter their families. With no other alternative, a family in Delaware was living in an RV to shelter their children. Today, that RV went up in flames. Luckily, the entire family made it out okay.

Each year in the U.S, 2.5 million children experience homelessness. Many kids are not eligible for the services they need because they are not counted under HUD's definition of homelessness.

Check out FP National break down the issue.
