Our Mission is to end homelessness and hopelessness We believe that everyone should have a home at a price they can afford.

GNP seeks to create community and a solid anchor to prevent the total displacement of low-income families and individuals. As a 501c3, asset based community development nonprofit, GNP strives to:

• House families experiencing homelessness by providing them with access to an emergency shelter, affordable transitional and permanent housing;

• Connect, and in some cases directly provide residents with resources to overcome employment and housing barriers such as job-readiness training, programming, referrals and placement;

• Support children and young adults with their academic, social and spiritual needs;

• Advocate on behalf of residents to ensure they receive appropriate benefits, treatment and services;

• Assist residents with service plans that outline short and long-term goals to greater security and self-sufficiency;

• Invest in the broader economic development and education of the North-of-Howard community. For more information on Good News Partners' services or to volunteer, please email us at [email protected] or call our main office at 773-764-4998.
