Mission Statement

Families Moving Forward helps families in the crisis of homelessness find their way home. We provide temporary housing, case management, skills education, and connection to community resources to help parents and children thrive in stable homes.

About This Cause

Our Vision Every family thriving in a safe, stable home. Right here in Durham, there are families who need our help. Families without a place to live. Families with young children. Families in need. Working together, we help provide families with children a stable, safe, and loving environment while they are in the temporary crisis of homelessness. We currently provide emergency shelter and supportive services to 20 families at our facility at a time. Our case management staff meets with every family to set family goals that address educational, vocational, health and emotional needs. Referrals are made to partner agencies if a family needs additional services. Through programing such as after-school tutoring, educational enrichment activities, and early interventions to children residing in our shelter FMF offers a multi-generation approach that aims to break the cycle of poverty in our community. Thanks to the ongoing teamwork of loving volunteers and professional staff, our families become self-reliant members of the community who can then give back to others in need.
