Family Promise of Carbon County is a public charity whose mission is to help families experiencing homelessness and low-income families achieve sustainable independence by providing temporary shelter, meals, and support services in order to meet the basic needs of families without permanent housing in Carbon County and the surrounding communities.

Our vision is a strong, engaged, inclusive, and equitable community where every family has a home, a livelihood, and the opportunity to build a better future.

,Family Promise of Carbon County was formed in 2009 by a core group of passionate citizens, led by Larissa Kimmel. She held community meetings and served as the organization’s first President. Since 2009, we have expanded to include 7 employees (3 of which are individuals with lived experience), 100+ volunteers, and a family shelter with 8 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
