Our Impact
Family Promise of Knoxville helps families rebuild their lives by finding work, transportation, schools, day care and permanent housing. We help them discover new skills such as financial management and healthy eating and offer ongoing support after leaving the emergency shelter program.
CHANGING LIVES
For over 30 years, Family Promise has provided shelter, nutritious meals, case management, and comprehensive services for homelessness prevention and stabilization to nearly 1 million family members across the country.
KEEPING FAMILIES TOGETHER
We believe that families should remain together—not separated—during the most challenging moments in their lives. Our programs are designed to support and strengthen families as a unit.
ACHIEVING SUCCESS
Through dedicated case management and strong community partnerships, more than 88% of families in our shelter program nationwide secure stable housing, ensuring a brighter future for their children.
