Providence House is a place of transformation for homeless families with children. Year after year, we have watched men, women, boys, and girls walk through our doors with nothing more than a garbage bag and leave with permanent housing, an education, a job paying a living wage, parenting skills, confidence, and an extended support system – the Providence House Family. The transformation process looks like chaos sometimes, but the end result is stunning!
Each day our team has the pleasure of transforming lives. While a daunting task, it is the most important work that we can do for families as well as our community. In fact, empowering homeless and low-income wage earners changes the landscape of our economy – permanently! Our holistic approach to breaking the homeless cycle centers around education and workforce development. For 36 years, Providence House has served as a beacon of light and hope in a place riddled with blight and poverty. We are only able to have this kind of impact and change lives because of you, our supporters!
