What We Do

Our mission is to empower women and children through education, health, residential care, and supportive services. We envision ending the generational cycle of poverty and trauma, creating better tomorrows.

Our services include: a safe place to live, healthy and consistent meals, counseling, access to health care, parenting support, education support, vocational training, nutrition education, early child development education, adoption support, and case management all from a trauma-informed perspective.  We have three residential programs:

  1. Maternity: Serving women and girls of any age experiencing homelessness
  2. Sarah's House: Mother-child program serving girls and young women in foster care who are parenting 
  3. Legacy Hall: Serving teen girls and young women in foster care with a focus on independent living skills

Additionally, we have one follow-up care program called the Aftercare Parenting Education Program (APEP).
