FAMILY PROMISE OF LAS VEGAS

What FAMILY PROMISE OF LAS VEGAS does

Family Promise of Las Vegas (FPLV) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1996 in Clark County, Nevada, originally as the Interfaith Hospitality Network. It serves families with children who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness in Southern Nevada, with 67% of people served being children. Its coordinated program suite includes the Motel Shelter Program (emergency housing that keeps families intact), Transitional Housing via ten bridge apartments at the new Family Navigation Center, Prevention and Stabilization Services for families facing eviction, Employment Services and Workforce Pathways (job coaching, resume building, certification pathways, job fairs), Supportive Services (IDs, work cards, food handler certifications), the Just Neighbors volunteer-congregation matching program, and the Family Enrichment program. Distribution is via website inquiry forms, partner-agency referrals, job fairs, and direct walk-in access at the Navigation Center, with families also referred from the Las Vegas Rescue Mission and other Southern Nevada social-service providers.

The organization's service delivery relies on standard nonprofit case-management workflows rather than proprietary technology, supplemented by commodity SaaS tools (Givebutter for donations, Microsoft Forms and Google Forms for intake, Eventbrite for events, Zoom for community meetings). There is no proprietary platform; the "platform" is in fact a 12,300-square-foot purpose-built facility opened September 30, 2025 on land donated by Clark County, developed through a Share the Promise Capital Campaign. FPLV is funded entirely through individual donations, foundation and government grants (including HUD-funded programs), in-kind congregational support exceeding $300,000 annually, planned giving, and corporate sponsorships. It holds the Candid Platinum Seal of Transparency, dedicates 91 cents of every donated dollar to direct services, and reported an 89% stable-housing transition rate in 2025 across 311 families served (206 in Bridge to Home with 17,000+ shelter nights and 105 in Prevention and Stabilization). It operates as an affiliate of the national Family Promise network while maintaining independent governance under its own Board of Directors and Executive Director Marisa Cervantes, who was appointed in October 2025.
