Currently in there shelter program with my 2 yr old daughter and have had a positive outcome because of this place and for that so it would be disrespectful to not share my experience with this organization. Ups and downs in life and they have been there and see past through it and show compassion, over and my beyond.

I'm currently homeless and my wife is eight months pregnant we plan on moving to Colorado in a few days. Can they help us??

Reggie Jones | Apr 10, 2022
ShadowMosess | Apr 10, 2022

Hey Reggie. FPofGD offers several different programs. Some with a waitlist, and if they aren't able to get you in in a timely manner, they will give you a list of community resources that can possibly get you some help sooner.

I'm planning to relocate to Colorado in a few short days I don't have a place to stay as of yet and I will be traveling with my boyfriend can we both stay here?

Brenda Ducksworth | Oct 7, 2021

Yes if you have kids and there is also a waiting list but if you have kids you can also go to the Samaritan house and ask for a motel voucher. There is alot of help in Colorado if you just reach out and follow whatever things they ask from you. But most importantly seek after the Lord and he shall direct your paths PROVERBS 3:6

What is the intake process? I have someone out in the street now and needs a place for the night

Selena Maes | Oct 8, 2019
Emily Miller | Oct 7, 2021

A family which includes children, can call the day site between 9-5pm M-F to complete an intake over the phone. From there the family can opt into programs of their choice that they qualify for and be placed on shelter wait-list.

How do I get started in getting help for my family if I don't get answered or a call back I'm trying to find shelter

Sharlene Jimenez | Oct 8, 2019
Emily Hanke | Oct 8, 2019

Keep calling around. It's a process but if they cant help, they'll help you find somewhere else.

Do you have a drug program. I need help with my addiction. I'm limited onetime I gotta leave the place I'm currently at tonight the earliest.... I'm hoping to get a day or 2 more.

Family promise is an on the go shelter program; unfortunately we do not offer any assistance regarding drug rehabilitation. You may have better help with researching respite care in your area.

Mery Sewell | Oct 8, 2019
Mandhir Singh | Oct 8, 2019

First they want to know, why do you choose us. Secondly, they might ask you for your stay length. Thirdly, for sure your ID's will be asked. They have to follow a mandatory process. But definitely they will help you out.

Alexis Battistone (Lexi) | Oct 8, 2018

Family promise is the WORST shelter I have ever stayed in. The staff are alright but this is a family shelter and they have u moving every week from church to church. If you have kids this isn't fun. Which to be in family promise you have to have a kid with you. Its a 3 month stay and u have to have a job after 30 days or they give u the boot. Curfew is 6pm unless ur working than its 10 pm. U wake up at 6 every morning. You go to a daysite until 4 pm then u go to the churches to sleep at night. The churches have vollunteers and 99% of them dont care to be there they hate honeless ppl or they're creepy and way too nebby.
