About Good News Partners

We believe that everyone should have a home at a price they can afford. GNP seeks to create community and a solid anchor to prevent the total displacement of low-income families and individuals.

As a 501c3, asset based community development nonprofit, GNP strives to:

• House families experiencing homelessness by providing them with access to an emergency shelter, affordable transitional and permanent housing;
• Connect, and in some cases directly provide residents with resources to overcome employment and housing barriers such as job-readiness training, programming, referrals and placement;
• Support children and young adults with their academic, social and spiritual needs;
• Advocate on behalf of residents to ensure they receive appropriate benefits, treatment and services;
• Assist residents with service plans that outline short and long-term goals to greater security and self-sufficiency;
• Invest in the broader economic development and education of the North-of-Howard community.
