About Lighthouse for Broken Wings
Mission: Our mission is to reduce the homeless population in Eastern Sussex County, DE. To provide appropriate resources for housing to those experiencing homelessness. Referral to holistic wrap-around services to address the mental, physical, medical, and emotional disabilities, education, and employment training through the appropriate organizations in Delaware.
Lighthouse for Broken Wings has three active programs to address those individuals experiencing homelessness. A. "A Sheltering Heart" is the temporary winter emergency shelter B. Summer Program called Helping Hands for families. C. Transitional Housing
An unexpected event occurred from 2019 to the present; The COVID-19 Pandemic has increased the population of individuals and families in the past two years. The housing opportunities changed the opportunities for the people by an increase in costs and qualifications. Therefore, many individuals and families are in temporary housing, and rise in occupants in locations unsuitable for living.
Lighthouse for Broken Wings encourages clients to increase their skills, education, and choice of employment. In addition, we are resourcing out to the appropriate organizations for additional support of the clients. Therefore, various organizations, education, and occupations will appropriately address the client's needs.
