Mission

THE MISSION OF FAMILY PROMISE OF YELLOWSTONE VALLEY IS TO HELP HOMELESS FAMILIES ACHIEVE AND SUSTAIN INDEPENDENCE THROUGH A COMMUNITY RESPONSE TO HOMELESSNESS.

About

FAMILY PROMISE OF YELLOWSTONE VALLEY (FPYV) HELPS HOMELESS FAMILIES ACHIEVE AND SUSTAIN INDEPENDENCE THROUGH A COMMUNITY RESPONSE TO HOMELESSNESS. WE ACCOMPLISH THIS THROUGH OUR EMERGENCY SHELTER, TRANSITIONAL HOUSING, THE AFTER CARE PROGRAM, THE WRAP AROUND AND BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY PROGRAM, AND 30 CONGREGATIONS THAT UNITE TO EMPOWER THE HOMELESS. THE WRAP AROUND AND BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY PROGRAM FOCUSES ON THE SUCCESS OF THE HOMELESS FAMILY AS A WHOLE AND WE HAVE SEEN TREMENDOUS RESULTS INCREASING OUR SUCCESS RATES OVER THE PAST YEAR FROM 75% TO 84% LONG TERM SUCCESS FOR THE FAMILIES WE SERVE. OVER THE LAST 14 YEARS, FPYV HAS LEARNED THAT SIMPLY PROVIDING A HOMELESS FAMILY WITH SHELTER IS NOT A SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION TO MUCH LARGER UNDERLINING ISSUES. FPYV KNOWS THAT WHEN HOMELESS FAMILIES COME INTO OUR NETWORK, THEY OFTEN ARE LACKING THE LIFE SKILLS AND COPING MECHANISMS TO ACHIEVE LONG TERM SUCCESS. THROUGH THE WRAP AROUND AND BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY PROGRAM, PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN IN OUR SHELTER WILL HAVE ACCESS AND ADDRESS EACH OF THE 26 DOMAINS IN THE MATRIX THAT WE FOLLOW UPON ENTERING OUR NETWORK. THESE DOMAINS INCLUDE HOUSING, EMPLOYMENT, INCOME, FOOD, CHILDCARE, ADULT EDUCATION, HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, MOBILITY, CLOTHING, COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT, PARENTING SKILLS, ACCESS TO SERVICES, LIFE SKILLS, LANGUAGE SKILLS, LEGAL ISSUES, FAMILY/SOCIAL RELATIONS, MENTAL HEALTH, PHYSICAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, FUNCTIONAL ABILITY, CAREER RESILIENCY/TRAINING, SETTING GOALS/RESOURCEFULNESS, CODEPENDENCY, CURRENT FEELINGS, AND SAFETY. DURING THE INTAKE PROCESS, WE LOOK AT EVERY DOMAIN, SCORING EACH AREA, AND UPON ENTERING OUR NETWORK WE WILL MAKE AN INDIVIDUALIZED PLAN TO ADDRESS THESE NEEDS. EACH DOMAIN IS SUPPLEMENTED BY A SERVICE PROVIDED IN THE WRAP AROUND AND BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY PROGRAM. HOMELESS FAMILIES WILL WORK DILIGENTLY ON OVERCOMING THESE BARRIERS, MOST FAMILIES OVERCOME ISSUES WITH CHILD CARE AND EMPLOYMENT WITHIN THE FIRST 28 DAYS OF ENTERING OUR NETWORK. WITH THOSE TWO BARRIERS OUT OF THE WAY EARLY, THESE FAMILIES CAN FOCUS ON MANY OTHER ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN PUT ON THE BACK BURNER FOR MUCH OF THEIR LIVES. FPYV SERVES SUCH A VULNERABLE POPULATION HERE IN THE YELLOWSTONE VALLEY REGION. THE CITY OF BILLINGS MAYOR'S COMMITTEE ON HOMELESSNESS ESTIMATES THAT ON ANY GIVEN NIGHT THERE ARE 123 FAMILIES MADE UP OF 600 INDIVIDUALS IN BILLINGS WHO ARE HOMELESS. FPYV IS ONE OF THE ONLY EMERGENCY SHELTERS THAT SERVES HOMELESS FAMILIES AS A WHOLE. THE DEMOGRAPHICS FOR THE 2018 YEAR SHOW THE VERSATILITY OF OUR NETWORK, REACHING ACROSS ALL BORDERS TO HELP THOSE IN NEED.
