Servant's
House is an enhanced emergency housing program designed to provide
emergency housing and supportive services to single mothers with
children, especially those women who have experienced domestic violence.
The program has the capacity to house approximately 24 families
(depending upon family size/composition). Women and their children
have access to all of TPCS programs and services as well as access
to an array of outside supportive services through well-established
collaborative agreements with these agencies.
On-site services include access to the Food and
Clothing Pantry, individual counseling services offered by Family
Connections, Inc., a weekly Women's Group, and a range of scheduled
recreational activities. Particular emphasis is placed on helping
the women work towards identifying those barriers and challenges
that keep them at risk for continued homelessness and unemployment.
As well, significant emphasis is placed upon assisting our women
who have substance abuse and/or mental health issues obtain the
needed services to move towards physical and emotional wholeness
thereby giving them the opportunity to address those gaps which
have kept them disadvantaged and disenfranchised. |
