FAMILY SUPPORT TEAMS AND FINANCIAL SPONSORSHIP

Each family enrolled in the HomeStretch housing program benefits from a Family Support Team. This team is a group of trained volunteers committed to helping the family move toward increased self reliance and stability. Our goal is for each family to return to permanent affordable housing.

Family Support Teams provide assistance with:
	Family Mentoring - Mentors provide emotional support and encouragement for families enrolled in the HomeStretch program. Mentors may recognize birthdays, invite the family out for an afternoon picnic and serve as positive role models for the program participants.
	Budgeting - The Budget Advisor formulates a budget plan with the family to track income and expenses on a weekly basis. A Budget Advisor assists the family in developing a savings plan, debt repayment plan and relocation budget as the family prepares for graduation from our program. The Budget Advisor teaches parents how to successfully address debt and to make good financial decisions.
	Resources and Job Coaching - Volunteers assist the Family Coordinator with locating resources needed by the family including services such as child care, transportation, resume preparation, job referrals/readiness or securing medical services.

Financial Sponsorship:

Of course we have opportunities for financial support. Your organization can support a family for $600 per month, providing assistance with the cost of utilities, insurance and property tax. Being a HomeStretch sponsor is an invaluable opportunity for your organization. The commitment is easy, the work gratifying, and the results life-changing.
