About this organization
Mission
Dwell with Dignity's mission is to help families escape homelessness and poverty through design; one household at a time. Our goal is to bring good design to those less fortunate, inspiring them to maintain a standard of living that they can be proud of and thrive in. Currently we serve Dallas County in Dallas, TX.
About
Our family homes program provides completely furnished homes for families who have previously been homeless. Dwell with Dignity designs and installs complete home interiors for families who desperately need an environment that will support health and wellness. We empower families to lead their best lives and to thrive in a safe, functional and beautiful environment. Our families become stable and create home lives of which they can be proud. Toxic stress levels are reduced significantly. Academics improve. Play dates are made. Plans are made for birthday parties, holiday gatherings and family dinners. These designs will have a powerful generational impact. In 2019 we served 24 families, which included 27 parents and 50 children.
