Tammy is our Director of Operations She is a married, mom of 2 teenage boys, owns a local home business, and is a member of Lighthouse Alliance Community Church. Being raised by a Mom who always taught her to help others she had been looking for a part time position that would fulfill both "job" and "helping others". Tammy is a Program Director for a one week program each summer at a children's camp and is where she met Elizabeth when the camp chose Family Promise of the Jersey Shore as their charity for the week. Coincidentally, a couple months later the Administrative Assistant position opened up & it was a perfect fit for what Tammy was looking for. As she continues her work with FPJS she commits herself to Romans 12:13 "When God's people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality."

Cheryl has dedicated her life to helping others. She has worked in nonprofit management for many years. In 2010, Cheryl became our Director of Family Promise. She helped dig roots with local congregations and volunteers who wanted to help our families. In 2016 she left for an opportunity that would send her traveling to other counties for work and in 2023 returned to Family Promise once again. She is happy to be back once again!
Cheryl is married to John and has 2 grown children. She loves to travel and is very involved with
her church and serves on several ministry teams.

Elizabeth has been with FPJS since 2013 first as the case manager and then moved into the Executive Director role in late 2016. She holds a Master's in Therapy from Drexel University specializing in Creative Arts Therapies. She has worked in the nonprofit field for over 20 years and has extensive experience in trauma and developmental work. She came across Family Promise by "chance" from a previous job. Her passion for helping others and wanting to make a difference within the community made the transition a great fit.
