Families First: A Community Rising to Meet the Need
Family homelessness is growing in our community at an alarming rate. In 2024, 587 families reached out to Just Neighbors seeking safety and stability. Because our current space is limited, we could only shelter a fraction of them, meaning 526 families had to hear the words no parent should ever hear: we don’t have room.
No family should be left without a safe place to sleep.
With your support, we are expanding our services to include overnight shelter, ensuring that families in crisis have a warm, secure space the moment they need it. This expansion will allow parents and children to stay safe, and stay together, until a room becomes available in our 45-day housing program.
This is more than a building project. It is a commitment to dignity, stability, and hope for families facing unimaginable challenges.
Your gift puts Families First. It gives children a place to rest, parents a chance to breathe, and families the support they need to reconnect, rebuild, and reclaim their futures.
Join us in making sure every family has a place to belong, today, tomorrow, and for generations to come.
