Raiseup Families

Raiseup Families supported 156 Families with school-aged children through rent and utilities assistance, transportation costs, childcare, and adult education. Services such as counseling, budgeting classes, and parent support groups empowered parents to become self-sufficient as their housing situation stabilized. Most importantly, 333 children remained in their present school without disruption due to eviction and potential homelessness. Families who graduated from our signature handup program experienced an average 71% income increase while entrusted to our care. 90% of parents entering our program graduated.
