Our Response
FPA helps communities to unite to provide shelter, meals and compassionate assistance to those experiencing homelessness. By working with faith communities and social services, the Family Promise of Albuquerque program can do what individuals alone can not do.
Host congregations provide accommodations for families for a week at a time on site. Families rotate to different sites, while participating in the program for 30 to 90 days. The host congregation furnishes clean, safe overnight lodging and two meals a day.
