In Houston, our ministries serve vulnerable children, families and seniors with resources and support to protect children, strengthen families, transform generations and serve seniors.
Marissa, a single mom of four girls who grew up surrounded by drugs and alcohol, fled to Houston, living in a homeless shelter while she tried to get her life together. She knew she wanted to get an education but didn't have the means or support to do it - until she found Buckner Family Pathways®. Vanessa came to the Buckner Family Hope Center® from a shelter and as a survivor of domestic violence as well as in remission from breast cancer. She and her children jumped into classes and counseling and now, she's a published author. Residents at Buckner Parkway Place enjoy community, hobbies and more to sustain a lifestyle they love.
Family Hope Centers keep families together by providing them with critical services, aid and coaching to keep them strong and decrease the likelihood of abuse, neglect and removal of children. Our Family Hope Center programs offer hope, support and empowerment in their community to reach their fullest God-given potential.
The Family Hope Center engages families through assistance and community events; equips families through education, financial empowerment, child and youth development and spiritual development; and elevates families through family coaching, counseling and spiritual enrichment.
Buckner has Family Hope Center locations across Houston:
We provide single-parent families the opportunity to live in a safe, secure environment while completing their educational or vocational goals and learning the skills needed to become self-sufficient. Families are provided support through access to affordable housing, financial assistance and case management services, which include referrals to parenting education, budget training, life skills and individual and group counseling. For more information, call 832-360-7232 or fill out an inquiry form.
Within this casually elegant community, a complete continuum of living is provided to those who make it home.
