Lawrenceville, United States HomeFront Full time

Organizational Overview

Since its inception over 30 years ago, HomeFront has worked to break the cycle of poverty and end homelessness in Central New Jersey, serving tens of thousands of Mercer County, New Jersey families. In the past year alone, families came to us over 50,000 times for shelter, food and life-changing assistance. Started by volunteers providing meals for families living in welfare motels in and around Trenton, HomeFront has since developed a holistic array of services for clients who are experiencing homeless, facing complex barriers to economic opportunity, or working hard to make ends meet. Our work is best captured by our mission statement: HomeFront’s mission is to end homelessness in Central New Jersey by harnessing the caring, resources and expertise of the community. We lessen the immediate pain of homelessness and help families become self-sufficient. We work to give our clients the skills and opportunities to ensure adequate incomes, and we work to increase the availability of adequate, affordable housing. We help homeless families advocate for themselves individually and collectively. HomeFront staff, board, and volunteers are the heartbeat of our success. HomeFront believes that nurturing skills, fostering growth, and prioritizing well-being not only elevate individual performance but also cultivate a resilient and high-performing collective, driving sustained excellence and innovation.
