Hope for Hometown Heroes
At Family Promise of Sussex County, we know that veterans and former service members are at a greater risk of experiencing homelessness than the general population. Substance abuse, mental health conditions, higher cost of living, lack of affordable housing, and increasing inflation make it nearly impossible for our country's heroes to maintain housing stability and sustainability.
This year FPSC is hosting its first Service Strong Veterans and Service Member Fair that is intended to connect our current and former servicemen and women and their families with resources for physical and mental wellness as well as community organizations intended to provide them with services and support, and connect them to available local jobs and businesses.
Our goal is to provide information, services, and hope for our hometown heroes as a thank you for them dedicating their lives to protect ours.
