About Us

The Interfaith Homeless Network of Greater Chattanooga coordinates the efforts of over 40 area congregations and their supporters to address the large and growing problem of families without homes. IHN provides homeless families with temporary evening lodging, meals, transportation and assistance finding work, training, education, housing, counseling and supportive services.

IHN works to keep families together. Families are interviewed and thoroughly screened.  All adult guests sign contracts concerning their responsibilities of conduct and effort within the program and the host congregations.

The IHN program is an affiliate of Family Promise which operates in 39 states with 140 affiliates and provides a 28-year-old model for success and efficiency in helping homeless families.

In 2010, IHN moved into a new 5,000 sq ft day center which houses staff, volunteers and clients.   We need Individuals to staff our new day center.  If you are interested in participating in our life changing ministry please call 756-3891 or complete a Volunteer Application.
