Women & Children Transitional Housing

LIFE TRANSFORMATION IS POSSIBLE

A transitional housing program created for moms and their children

There are many different reasons that moms have come to our Coldwater Women and Children's Home. Sometimes they have been left homeless due to job loss, sometimes they are escaping a dangerous or abusive situation. Whatever the reason, we offer them a safe place to stay to rebuild their lives and strengthen their families.

  • Spiritual Healing

    Faith isn't optional in this program. It's the foundation. We believe lasting life transformation happens when your relationship with Christ is at the center.

  • Path for Independence

    Financial independence is about gaining control over your own narrative and securing a future where you can live life on your own terms. We provide the tools you need to develop a plan for sustainable living, which includes finding permanent housing and jobs.

  • Emotional Wellbeing

    You'll work with case managers who understand what you're going through and be embedded in a community that truly sees you.

  • Life Skills

    We teach practical skills: budgeting, job readiness, conflict resolution, healthy relationships, and parenting.
