Families Forward is a nonprofit organization that was founded in 1984 by a group of dedicated community members working with the City of Irvine and the Irvine Company who shared the same vision of providing supported housing programs for families in crisis. For over 23 years, Families Forward has addressed the needs of low-income and homeless families in Orange County. The comprehensive array of services offered at Families Forward empowers families to regain stability and self-sufficiency. Our homeless prevention services include career coaching, life-skills education, and food assistance. These services are supplemented by the rigorous Transitional Housing Program, which has resulted in more than 4 out of 5 families successfully transitioning from dependence to financial stability and returning to being productive residents of the community.
