Transforming the lives of families experiencing homelessness. Because every child deserves a home.

Mission Statement

 

The mission of Family Promise of MidCoast Maine is to help families without housing and families who struggle with impending housing loss to achieve their housing goals through a community-based response.

 

 

Statement of Welcome

 

Family Promise of MidCoast Maine does not discriminate based on creed, nationality, race, ethnic belonging, physical ability, or disability, learning style, gender, gender expression, age, or any other distinguishing trait not relevant to housing or housing-related support.

 

Our own promise within Family Promise of MidCoast Maine is this:

We promise to do all we can to ensure that our community partners and our faith community resources work with us to ensure that Family Promise hospitality and support is universally welcoming not only in spirit but also in practice.
