Former Resident

I came to St. Francis House for help. The case managers were great. They helped me find a new job, enroll my 4 and 6-year-olds in daycare and school. They helped me find a new safe home for us. Two years later, I am now working on a military base, have full-time employment, full benefits, a beautiful home in a great neighborhood, and a new future — all thanks to St. Francis House.

Former Resident

St. Francis changed my life forever. They gave me a place to live while I was homeless. They gave me food, clothing, everything I needed. Working with the case managers, I was able to find work, childcare, and build a future for my family. I have been employed full-0time and permanently housed for over 8 years and couldn’t have gotten here without the help of St. Francis House.
