Shelter

Through Bridge to Home, FPTV offers shelter services aimed at addressing the varied needs of our guests.

  • “I was sitting in the Walmart parking lot, pretty overwhelmed and down because I didn’t know what was coming next. I didn’t know where we were going to sleep that night. Hearing about FPTV, I didn’t hesitate to call, and I’m glad I did, because it was that bridge that we needed. We were welcomed with love and open arms.”

    – Ashley

  • “The mental and emotional strain going through long-term homelessness takes its toll on you. Right from the start, FPTV staff were welcoming, attentive, solution-driven and accommodating. I was provided the necessities to not just survive, but to feel protected, secure, and hopeful with FPTV’s ongoing support for my success. It’s changed my life and I am forever grateful.”

    – Nora

  • “One day I got a call from Family Promise of Tualatin Valley…that’s how it started. They helped us, coached us as mentors, provided their time, got us healthcare. Now, I’m on my feet, and I’m going to utilize all the resources they showed me, and my family and I are going to move on. Thank you!”

    – Heiny

  • "Thank you so much. I’m excited for my new life. Thank you for standing beside me throughout this journey- I couldn’t of done it without FPTV."

    – Teresa
