FSC Leads Orange County to end Family Homelessness: Through strong partnerships, our member organizations ideate, implement and advocate for innovations throughout the system, making the FSC the primary driver towards ending a family’s housing crisis.
FSC functions as the “System” supporting the direct service providers
who make up our member organizations.
In an effort to ensure system-wide best practices for families in Orange County, the FSC focus and goals are to ensure families are able to access family shelters, prevention and diversion services as well as housing resources in an equitable, timely and coordinated manner. We do this through our collaborative partnerships, ongoing support, training and technical assistance of best-practices that we provide to our member agencies.
Project Hope Alliance deploys a long-term, on-site intervention model for children, youth and their families experiencing homelessness, who face obstacles that prevent them from accessing resources, being a kid, and achieving educational and life goals. For children experiencing homelessness, Project Hope Alliance solves the unique issues that prevent them from achieving their full potential.
Mission: Ending the cycle of homelessness, one child at a time.
In 1989, Project Hope Alliance grew out of a schoolteacher’s passion for assisting local homeless children with their education – with her car serving as the first classroom. This personal outreach program soon became an organized undertaking called Project HOPE, which stood for “Homeless Outreach Program in Education.”
Project Hope Alliance is committed to providing homeless children and youth from kindergarten through age 24 with the tools and opportunities that they need to learn their way to a better tomorrow. In this work, they have spent the last 28 years developing a unique model of care, which includes effective education and housing stability program models that serve the needs of children experiencing homelessness in Orange County.
