AMERICAN FAMILY HOUSING
Mission Statement
American Family Housing’s offers services to children in our housing program that range in ages from 4 years old to 18 years old, and provides therapeutic and educational services that address the impact of homelessness on children. Most children are traumatized due to extended periods of housing instability, and other social and family dysfunctions that result in low self-esteem, an inability to concentrate, poor educational outcomes, and an array of mental health issues. Through play, structured programs, therapeutic fine arts, mentoring and social activities, children’s lives are transformed as their families achieve long-term housing stability. For children whose schooling has lagged due to discontinuity associated with homelessness, tutoring is offered to assist the children with their homework and school projects. One on one support results in significant improvement in test results and reading. Dozens of low-income urban children are also offered the opportunity to go to participate in AFH’s Summer Day Camp every summer at no cost to families, through private and community support.
