Our mission:  Passage Home is a faith based, ecumenical, interracial Community Development Corporation to end homelessness, increase affordable housing, enable economic self-sufficiency and promote community development.

This ministry strengthens families to become self-sufficient and neighborhoods to become more supportive in Raleigh and Wake County.  Target programs include:

• Homeless families seeking to stabilize their lives, whose adult heads of household agree to work.
• Women leaving the prison system who wish to reunite with their children.
• Neighborhood development: restoring housing; community problem solving; economic literacy and social programs.

A New Volunteer Opportunity:  Passage Home is sponsoring a new mentoring program called Jobs for Life.  They are currently looking for Champions (mentors) for this program.  The Champion will be assigned to a student and will be involved in weekly mentoring session.  Volunteers will be trained – the next set of classes starts in mid-March.  Commitment should be 1 to 5 hours per week in person, by phone, or in class.
