Family Promise of Las Vegas is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to helping at-risk families with children achieve secure housing, financial stability, and long-term independence. Through a compassionate, community-driven response, Family Promise works to break the cycle of homelessness by providing both temporary and long-term housing solutions in partnership with apartment complexes, landlords, motels, and hundreds of service providers and stakeholders across Southern Nevada. For the past 29 years, Family Promise of Las Vegas has helped thousands of families with children transition from homelessness to safe, stable, and dignified housing. 70% of the families served achieve sustainable housing.

We’re proud of our roots as a grassroots, interfaith organization. In our early years, local congregations opened their gymnasiums to provide shelter, meals, and supervision—offering hospitality with dignity to families experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Today, Family Promise of Las Vegas serves families in crisis through housing support, employment services, and wraparound case management. Our top priority is to ensure families stay together, even as they face difficult transitions.

Some of the key programs that help achieve the high success rate include:

• Motel Shelter: Keeping unhoused families together during crisis
• Transitional Housing: Bridge apartments with wraparound services at the Navigation Center
• Employment Services: Coaching, job fairs, resume building and training
• Family Stabilization: Short-term assistance for housing, utilities and childcare to prevent homelessness
• Supportive Services: Including IDs, fingerprinting, work cards, move-in kits and food handler certifications
• Just Neighbors: A volunteer-powered program connecting families with local groups to meet essential needs

Each family (67% of the people we serve are children) receives a personalized plan with goals tailored to their specific needs. This individualized, trauma-informed approach allows us to help families break the cycle of homelessness and rebuild their futures with dignity.

In the last year alone, Family Promise of Las Vegas served 788 families, totaling more than 2,400 individuals, with comprehensive services to help them regain independence. 91% of these families achieved their goal of transitioning into stable housing!
