Story and Mission
Homelessness affects hundreds of families in Mobile County each year . Family Promise of Coastal Alabama is the place where many are warmly welcomed by friends and neighbors from the community who offer the help they need to get back on their feet . Usually , congregations rotate as “ host ”, ( i . e . offering their worship space for sleeping ), and volunteers prepare and serve meals . We ’ ve scaled down the rotation due to COVID , but families are still being safely sheltered and fed . During the day , parents work with an experienced case manager to make a plan to tackle the obstacles in their paths . We offer transportation to school , work , and vital appointments , educational services , budgeting and parenting skills classes . In the end , about 80 % of families in the program exit into stable housing . The best part is that families never had to be apart from one another when they need each other most .
