College Houses
College Houses are for Transitional Age Women (18-25) and their children, lacking family support. We provide everything they need to get their lives back on track, education, job training, internships, automobile matching and savings plans. Each young woman has their own bedroom. The average stay is two years.
MISSION & PURPOSE
A Place for Safety, Healing, and Lasting Transformation
This house was the first of our homes and was built in 2010. Since that time, we have transformed the lives of hundreds of young families.
WHO WE SERVE
Young Women with Complex Trauma and Limited Support
College Houses serve young women who:
- Are 18–26 years old
- Are survivors of human trafficking
- Are prior foster youth or lack family support
- May be pregnant and struggling with addiction
- Require structured residential treatment and stability
Our Goal
Healing That Lasts
Our goal is not short-term stabilization, but full transformation. Upon graduation, each young woman leaves with:
- Permanent housing
- A career path or job placement
- Sobriety and emotional stability
- Savings and life skills for long-term success
- Require structured residential treatment and stability
