Margie’s Place, A House of Hope

OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE A HOME ENVIRONMENT THAT EMPOWERS WOMEN TO EMBRACE MOTHERHOOD WITH STRENGTH, RESILIENCE AND HOPE.

We will do this by:

• Providing a safe, stable & nurturing environment
• Equipping women with parenting, relational & life skills
• Fostering spiritual growth
• Developing a culture of family in the home.

Our home for mothers is a residential home with 3 bedroom suites that can house up to 3 women and 3 babies at a time. There is staff supervision 24 hours/ 365 days a year. There are daily responsibilities that each resident participates in, as Margie’s Place functions very much like a family.

Each resident will be on her own path to complete schooling, GED or seeking part-time work during her time at our home. She will also participate in our program that focuses on teaching parenting, relational and life skills.

Residents will be able to live in our home until around the time her child turns one year old. She will work with our Housing Manager to develop goals for her time in our home, and to create a plan for what her next steps will be after leaving Margie’s Place.
