Family Promise Mat-Su is nestled between the Chugiak and Talkeetna Mountains, about 40 miles north of Anchorage, Alaska.  Affectionally referred to as "The Valley",  there are over 20,00 residents in an area the size of West Virginia.  35% of this population is considered homeless.  Our goal at Family Promise Mat-Su is to provide a holistic approach in helping families experiencing homelessness through their journey to housing.   We partner with local churches to provide warm meals, family activities, and overnight hosting.  We provide shelter for their pets, transportation for school/day care, and life skills classes through partnerships in the community.
