Family Promise of Greater New Braunfels is a community response to family homelessness. We exist to support, guide and lift families out of homelessness and into safe housing, gainful employment, and independence.

Representatives from local churches have came together to address the need. Family Promise of Greater New Braunfels (FPGNB) is a partnership of churches that open their doors, classrooms, gyms, and hearts to serve as hospitality centers to families experiencing homelessness, partnering with professional case management and other community resources to offer temporary housing, meals, transportation and loving support.

When a family successfully completes our comprehensive shelter program, they have accomplished a series of steps to continue their journey to long-term self-sufficiency. Accomplishments include:

• Safe Housing
• Permanent, full-time employment
• Safe, reliable child care or after-school care
• Emergency savings fund of $1000+
• A working, realistic budget
• Reliable transportation

Once a family "graduates" and moves into their own home, they transition into A New Lease on Life aftercare program, which includes:

• Professional case management support for one year
• Help with emergent needs
• Life skills workshops (Child care is provided.)
• Peer support of fellow FPGNB alumni, as well as other supportive relationships.
