Services Offered |
Low cost housing and free child care affords our single moms the opportunity to attend school. (Each resident, assisted by our professional staff, creates a plan of action to achieve their educational and vocational goals.) On site programs such as parenting, self-esteem and budgeting enhance the experience of living at Our Mother's House and assists moms to develop life skills for independence and self-sufficiency. House meetings and shared responsibilities afford each resident the opportunity to share in their own community. While living in a private apartment, the community setting teaches residents skills needed to live as a good neighbor and active citizen of a community. Our Mother's house has partnered with Children's First and established an Early Head Start just for OMH children, and it is located on site. Early Head Start opened in March 2010; it is a licensed program with certified teachers who will ensure that in addition to a wonderfully warm and caring environment, our children gain the skills and abilities they need to enter the public school system. The center is open Monday to Friday from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. Mothers must provide diapers, wipes, food and drink, and a change of clothes daily. |
