Forty percent of all homeless in Delaware are members of a family experiencing homelessness. Resources exist for homeless individuals, less so for families. Family Promise is the only shelter in Delaware that has always accepted any family, no matter their size, make-up or composition. They are the gap in services for families experiencing homelessness. Their impact is apparent as we serve more families than any other provider in the state, as they served 44.9% of all homeless families experiencing homelessness last year."
