Since December 4, 2021, Family Promise of Spokane hasn't turned away a single family for lack of room or resources. No child has been forced to return to the street.

​

Families facing homelessness make up about 35% of those experiencing homelessness nationwide. In Spokane County, about 1 in 25 students will experience homelessness every year. Despite these staggering statistics, many community members don't often imagine or see families on the street. Why not? Because it's not safe for children. Instead, families will rent a room at a motel, stay in a car or sleep on a friend's floor. In this way, they will keep their family together, but are unable to break the cycle of homelessness themselves. This survival cycle is broken when a family seeks services at Family Promise of Spokane.

​

Through Night Without a Bed, we challenge you - your church, your business, your friend group - to spread the word and suppoabout the challenges of families facing homelessness.
