Family Promise ofOgdenOgden
Family Promise of Ogden is a shelter for homeless families, with young children. We are different than regular shelters because we not only provide for the physical needs, like a place for them to stay and food, but we also help them and teach them how to be self-sufficient. We help them learn the skills that they will need to maintain independence. We do intensive case management to help our clients overcome roadblocks to independence. There is a big homeless population in Ogden. If you walk down Wall Avenue, you'll see it.

Da Silva explains how the cost of living has pushed more families out of stable housing and onto sofas and into cars. Da Silva details how many unhoused exist due to generational situations. Da Silva shares the successes of different clients and how they have gone from the streets to owning homes and businesses.
