HOME HYGIENE RELIEF – TEMPORARY STATIONARY OR POP-UP LOCATIONS TO SERVICE THE UNHOUSED FOR SANITARY CLEAN UP, SHOWER, MEALS, CONNECTIVE SERVICES, HEALTH CARE NAVIGATION, CLOTHING CARE PACKAGES, SHELTER RESOURCE REFERRALS
Family Hands Foundation understands when you look good, you feel good. In an effort to help our unhoused population feel good about themselves, we provide mobile hygiene shower opportunities. This will give unhoused individuals an opportunity to freshen up so they are able to confidently seek employment, health care, or just reconnect with others to regain control of their lives. Hygiene care packages, clean undergarments, and a meal are given to each unhoused member who receives a shower. Referrals for medical treatment and psychiatric referral support are provided on-site at the mobile shower location.

RE-ENTRY & HOUSING NAVIGATION PROGRAM – Comprehensive programs designed to address the complex needs of individuals transitioning from incarceration, who are at risk of housing and food insecurities, education and job readiness workshops, providing a continuum of care through trauma-informed, harm-reductive, and peer-to-peer led evidence-based practices.
We provide in-reach services for those individuals preparing to exit prison, outreach services, case management, basic skills education workshops, hygiene services, and housing navigation. It is our goal to close the skills gap by challenging the stigmas and stereotypes that discourage people from pursuing the millions of available jobs that most think is unattainable for the re-entry population.

END OF LIFE INTERNMENT GRANTS – PROVIDE FIXED GRANTS TO INTELLECTUAL DISABLED INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE NO KNOWN FAMILY OR FAMILY SUPPORT AT AN UNTIMELY END OF LIFE FOR BURIAL/CREMATION PURPOSES.
Too often, life brings about an untimely death, and the finances are not available to give a proper internment service to members of the Intellectually Delayed population. FHF has dedicated funding called “Deborah’s Wings” in honor of one of our loved residents who met a very untimely death at the early age of 26 years old. These grants are provided to the Intellectually disabled population to afford proper internment services when there is no family or financial ability to intern.
