In our community,
no child will sleep outside.
Join the No Child Sleeps Outside Capacity Campaign — and help expand the pathway out of family homelessness.
The problem is closer than you think.
Right now, children in Monroe County are facing nights of uncertainty. Family homelessness is a real and ongoing challenge in our community — rooted in rising housing costs, limited childcare, and systemic barriers that can feel impossible to overcome.
It's easy to feel like there's nothing one person can do.
But there is. And it starts with hope that isn't wishful thinking. It starts with hope in action.
New Hope offers a pathway that works.
The results speak for themselves:
At New Hope for Families, children and parents don't just find emergency shelter. They find a pathway out of family homelessness — for good.
Children receive the safety and stability they need today, along with high-quality early childhood education that builds strong foundations for tomorrow. Parents receive individualized coaching, support, and resources that help them rebuild from a place of dignity and strength.
New Hope for Families is Bloomington's most effective solution to family homelessness — providing safety today and stability tomorrow through shelter, early learning, and family-centered support.
