About Us
OUR MISSION
The mission of Trevor’s Campaign is to empower people, strengthen family and build community by improving the physical, mental, behavioral, social and economic health of vulnerable adults and children in the Greater Philadelphia region.OUR VISION
Building upon our 32 years of experience housing and helping homeless families in Philadelphia, the Campaign’s goal is to equip our Delaware Valley neighbors to reestablish healthier, more productive lives through the three-pronged approach of prevention, education and advocacy. Targeted prevention will empower people to avert avoidable problems. Proactive education will strengthen families and individuals to improve length and quality of life. Strategic advocacy will build community by giving a voice to the vulnerable – first by connecting people to needed community resources and then by advocating before centers of power in government and business. Trevor’s objective is to meet human need, alleviate suffering and restore hope.Latest News & Special Interests
