Our History

Interfaith Neighbors, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded in May 1988 when local faith communities came together to address the growing problem of homelessness. Over 35 years later, we continue to serve those in need with our founding Rental & Mortgage Assistance Program and through a variety of additional programs that have evolved to address the needs of the communities the organization serves.
