ACHIEVEability .’s Summary

Since 1981, ACHIEVEability has worked to improve the quality of life of single parent, low-income, and formerly homeless families through education, supportive services, community and economic development, housing and accountability.

At ACHIEVEability, we believe that housing is a necessary first step to ending poverty. But we know that in order to truly break achieve permanent self-sufficiency and financial freedom, education is key. In the 2007-2008 school year, 19 of our clients received college degrees and 8 ACHIEVEability families moved into permanent housing! Currently we work with over 120 families in our program.
