For 20 years, Family Promise of Sacramento has stood as the essential barrier between homelessness and hope for our community’s most vulnerable residents. Our mission is simple: to ensure that no family has to sleep in a car, a tent, or on the street.
Our impact is measured by the number of lives transformed. We have successfully transitioned 438 families from the brink of crisis into stable, permanent homes. In 2025 alone, we served 1,668 children. Our model works because it addresses the whole person as well as the individual's long-lasting stability.
Housing First: 98% of our families secure permanent housing.
Educational Continuity: Every school-age child in our program remains in the classroom, with many reclaiming the grade-level status lost during their time of house instability.
Economic Empowerment: Every able-bodied parent receives the job training or placement necessary to sustain their independence.
Health & Unity: We provide the healthcare access and mentoring that homelessness often makes impossible, all while keeping the family unit intact.
Family Promise of Sacramento is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, established in 2005 to help homeless families in the Sacramento metropolitan region regain housing and become self-sufficient within 90 days.
Program funding to cover our monthly expenses of approximately $40,000. On average, it costs $8,500 to support a family through our program.
While our mission remains steadfast, our operational tools have become a bottleneck. We are currently navigating significant limitations of legacy systems that hinder our ability to scale our reach. To serve more families effectively in an increasingly complex housing landscape, our organization is undergoing an internal transformation. We are prioritizing: strategic growth, technology modernization, and capacity building. Funding is needed for these priorities.
Three to six months of reserve funding for operating costs.
Family Promise of Sacramento empowers families experiencing homelessness to achieve lasting independence. Through a combination of emergency shelter, nutritious meals, and dedicated case management, we provide the tools families need to move from crisis to self-sufficiency.
