From the About page

In the 1980s the agency began assisting refugees from wars in Southeast Asia and Central America. In the 1990s it began to focus on the persistent problems of homelessness and poverty in Philadelphia. Travelers Aid developed new emergency shelter and transitional housing programs, intensive case management, employment support, and after-school and summer programs for children. Today Families Forward Philadelphia is a key part of Philadelphia’s continuum of services for homeless and impoverished families, and is especially recognized for our expertise in helping large homeless families (those with three or more children.)
