Francis Court I is our transitional housing program for homeless families. Parents who are homeless receive their own apartment to begin to rebuild their lives!
With love and community support we are able to make an impact that lasts a lifetime!
Since opening Francis Court I in 2006, the program has witnessed amazing success!
  • 197 homeless families have been housed at this location, 255 adults and 489 children
  • Of the 187 families who have exited the program, 135 have secured permanent housing
  • 83 parents found new jobs while residing at the program
  • 232 children were able to return home from alternate placements
Case Managers work closely with each family to address the following needs:
  • Medical & Dental: this can include general medical needs as well as recovery from substances, disability assessments, family planning & tobacco cessation
  • Mental Health & Social and Emotional Well Being: this can include assistance with counseling, anger management, communication, relationships, support systems and spiritual wellness
  • General Needs like food, income, clothing, transportation, childcare and housing
  • Educational & Vocational: this can include money management, schooling, professional training, parenting education, life skills and job search
These parents bravely fight for their lives while learning a new way to live and we are there every step of the way!
In addition to this amazing program we also have a similar transitional housing program for homeless veterans : House of Cornelius and a permanent supportive housing program: Francis Court II. We are in the pre-construction phase of Francis Court III ..... Stay tuned for more exciting details including a date for the groundbreaking ceremony!
In a typical year we spend $
$ 6000 on insurance
$ 2500 on classes and supports
$18,000 on utilities
$ 20,000 on repairs and maintenance
$2000 for events and food for residents

We have historically made ends meet through donations, fundraisers, program revenue and grants
