As Arizona’s largest provider of services for families experiencing homelessness, UMOM exists to end family homelessness by restoring hope and rebuilding lives. Founded 61 years ago in 1964, UMOM is a community provider of emergency shelter, job training, and affordable housing. At UMOM, our programs are built around a simple formula:
Jobs + Housing = Ending Homelessness.
We work hand in hand with each person we serve to solve that formula alongside them, recognizing that each situation requires a personal touch and listening ear. Our unique approach is empathetic and individualized to ensure long-term success. UMOM offers a full slate of vital services, rooted in a foundation of trust and proactive support. We create healing spaces that ensure dignity and respect for all our families, so that together we can work towards ending family homelessness by restoring hope and rebuilding lives, so no child will ever have to sleep on the streets.
UMOM has grown significantly over the past 61 years and offers diverse solutions to housing to end homelessness, which makes a greater impact in our community. In 2017, UMOM acquired programs and staff from Tumbleweed and launched the new Halle Women’s Center.
