Our Program

Program Overview

We facilitate co-parenting communities where single mothers and their children (aged 0-12 months) come together to learn, grow, and support one another. We offer a comprehensive, nurturing environment that provides: childcare coordination, professional guidance, and community support.

Discover how our holistic programs empower single mothers and their children through education, community support, and collaborative growth.

Our approach is guided by three main pillars:

  • Building trust and community through group activities and co-parenting groups.
  • Establishing a safe and structured residential setting.

2

Step Two: Learning and Growth

  • Parenting workshops on nonviolent communication, child development, and self-care.
  • Financial literacy training and personal development coaching.
  • Shared childcare coordination, fostering collaboration and responsibility.
  • Access to resident professionals for counseling, mentorship, and support.

Step Three: Transition & Sustainability

  • Reflection sessions to celebrate growth and identify next steps.
  • Individual transition plans for mothers preparing to leave the program.
  • Alumni connections and ongoing support beyond the program.
  • Program evaluation and continuous improvement to ensure long-term success.
