Family Promise of Greater Modesto - Modesto, CA

Description: We are a temporary shelter for families with children under the age of 18. We provide intensive case management support towards the goal of families getting into more permanent housing and regaining their independence. We have a Day Center for families in the program, 10 congregations and their volunteers providing shelter and support. We can shelter 4 families or 14 clients at one time. We are drug and alcohol-free, conduct criminal background checks, and free of violence. We are a program that provides the intensive case management and support that families need to feel empowered to get back on their feet.

Volunteers Requests by Family Promise of Greater Modesto: We accept volunteers. Volunteers help prepare for clients arrival into the shelter on a weekly basis, cook and provide meals every day, provide evening and overnight support. People are linked up to a congregation that provides this support and they volunteer through that congregations' rotation. We would also need to have two weekend volunteers for the Day Center.


Donation Requests by Family Promise of Greater Modesto: Donations are provided on an as needed basis and as families move from the shelter into more permanant housing.
