Mission
The mission of Thomas House is to provide a safe, supportive environment and the resources necessary for homeless families with children to remain together while empowering them to become independent and self-sufficient.
Working together, these dedicated individuals saw to it that Thomas House would officially open on April 8, 1987. Sadly, we lost Bernie in April of 2010, but Mary continues to be very involved with Thomas House.
Thomas House does much more than shelter homeless families- we offer them an opportunity to permanently change their lives. Thomas House is a goal oriented, life changing program that offers comprehensive services designed to help families attain permanent housing and self-sufficiency. Last year Over 95% of our residents graduated from our program, 89% moved into their own home and 81% got Full-time employment!
Thomas House exclusively serves homeless families with children, and the parents must be willing and qualified to work. We support approximately Open House 1 (1)135-150 individuals per year. Our programs have had significant impact in the community.
