This includes, among others, parenting and life skills, educational enrichment, housing supervision, access to mental and physical health care, transportation assistance and child care services.

Our multi-faceted team approach uses thorough clinical case management that empowers our mothers to avoid homelessness, modify their old attitudes, and adopt new beneficial values.

Using tested strategies, we build our mothers’ parenting and child development skills better equipping them to rear strong families.

The main objective for each young mother who walks through our doors is to obtain permanent housing and secure gainful employment that ensures long-term self-sufficiency.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/mk_page_section]
