Project Title: Basic Needs and Essential Household Items for Young Unhoused Families
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Family Promise of Greater Cleveland provides shelter and supportive services for up to 21 families at a time in a former elementary school building in Cleveland, Ohio. The agency serves an average of 75 families that consist of 200 individuals each year, and has a special focus on serving families headed by young parents. Last year, 50% of the families served in shelter were headed by a parent(s) between the ages of 18-25 years old and 60% were headed by a parent(s) between the ages of 18-27 years old. Young children comprised 63% of the total number of individuals served and 43% of the children that were served were 2 years old or younger. <\/p>\n
Funding is being requested to provide the families served with any basic need and\/or essential household item that they lack when they arrive at the shelter. Most families first spend time at an overflow shelter before coming to Family Promise. They are often happy to be in a living unit with their own kitchen and are eager to return to some of the rituals of family life, such as cooking meals together. Family Promise therefore makes it a priority to provide families with the materials they need to start on the pathway to self-sufficiency. Some examples of the types of essentialities provided include groceries, pack n’ plays, children’s car seats, microwaves, fans, cleaning items, and kitchenware. This helps to decrease their stress and anxiety, and allows them to focus on the work they need to do in order to find housing and employment or another source of income. Families use these basic supplies while residing in shelter and then are invited to take them with them when they move into their own housing, increasing the likelihood that they will be able to maintain long-term stability.\n<\/p>\n
