About Families in Transition

OUR MISSION: To provide safe affordable housing and comprehensive social services to individuals and families who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, enabling them to gain self-sufficiency and respect.

Families in Transition (FIT)is a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency with locations in Manchester and Concord, New Hampshire that provides safe affordable housing to homeless individuals with or without children.

Families in Transition (FIT) began as a program of the New Hampshire Community Loan Fund in 1991 with one facility and the capacity to provide transitional housing and support services to five women and their children.

FIT was incorporated into a non-profit agency governed by a Board of Directors in 1995. The organization has since grown into an agency that in 2005 assisted 116 single mothers, 7 single fathers, 195 children and 35 single women without children. FIT has five residential building in Manchester and two in Concord.

FIT has experienced unprecedented growth over the past years; however, programs have not been compromised. Its success rate of participants who complete the program moving into permanent housing continues to be almost 90%. FIT's mission to serve homeless individuals has never wavered and the staff are proud of the valiant women and men who partake in our programs and commit to changing the course of their lives and achieving self-sufficiency.
