FamilyAid
FamilyAid is the leading provider of solutions to family homelessness in Greater Boston, empowering parents and caregivers facing homelessness to secure and sustain housing and build strong foundations for their children’s futures.
Purpose
There are thousands of homeless families in Boston and thousands more living on the brink. The economic tightrope struggling families walk is long, and just one thing can knock them off: a lack of affordable housing or child care, fewer work hours, an accident, domestic violence or illness.
Stable housing and access to key resources are the foundations every child needs to thrive. We help families gain the stability they need for long-term success.
Our 2-generation approach ensures optimal well-being for both children and parents and helps families achieve self-sufficiency.
