Angels of Grace Foster Family Agency was recently awarded the "Homeless Prevention Rapid Re-Housing Program (HPRP) 2009 grant to expand current services in serving the homeless. The name of the program is called the "Angels of Grace Homeless Prevention Program (AOG HPP)." The original target population was to focus on females between the ages of 18-24, however, due to the tremendous demands of housing, we have expanded our services to helping any single females and single males, with or without children and married couples 18 years of age and older. We are also working in conjunction with the City and County of Fresno through this program.
Our mission for the AOG HPP is to provide safe and secure housing for individuals and families who are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless. The ultimate goals is to do all necessary to prevent individuals and families from experiencing homelessness and quickly re-house and stabalize these individuals and families.
AOG HPP offers the following services to the public:
