We who recognize God’s providence and fidelity to His people are dedicated to living out His covenant among ourselves and those children we serve, with absolute respect and unconditional love. That commitment calls us to serve suffering children of the street, and to protect and safeguard all children. Just as Christ in His humanity is the visible sign of God’s presence among His people, so our efforts together in the covenant community are a visible sign that effects the presence of God, working through the Holy Spirit among ourselves and our kids

Since our founding in 1991, Northwest Philadelphia Interfaith Hospitality Network (NPIHN) has moved 275 families—745 individuals— from homelessness to stability. We look forward to growing our network further as we expand to Northeast Philadelphia in 2012.The NPIHN program provides assessment and referrals, emergency housing, supportive service and transitional housing. Equipped with new skills and relationships, 92% of our families do not return to shelter programs after their NPIHN experience.

The Rights of Passage Program (ROP) is a Transitional Housing program for youth 18 through 21. Located in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia, this facility houses 20 youth, split between 10 apartments. This program can be 18 months in length. All ROP youth were first residents of our Crisis Center and maintained or found employment while there. After an application process, those youth selected from our Crisis Center graduate to the ROP program. It is the arena in which youth begin to develop the skills which will truly help them become, and remain, self-sufficient. Youth are offered extensive life skills training (money management, food preparation and storage, job vs. career, rent vs. mortgage, cleaning skills, etc.) and other skills which promote independence.
