This is a program that houses and offers comprehensive support to women who are pregnant and/or have small children 10 or under. Caring case workers and volunteers help women get their lives on track with a biblical perspective. Faith is not a requirement. Doing the work IS a requirement.

I was there from December 22 untill August 31. I'm now have my first apartment with my 3 year old son. If it wasn't for this place I would have been on the streets. They gave me shelter in the middle of the winter and treated me like family. I wish the people who run this shelter would get more recognition because they really do offer so much help and support. Personal development classes, Finance classes, Parenting classes. Not only was they a place to lay my head, but it will help you with life skills when you are out on your own. Very clean place, I And to my son it felt like a real home. Life Turning point cooked for us through out week and even the days where we where on our own to cook we had a community fridge and cabinet full of food. I received alot of personal development like a real PHD therapist, a health coach and a parenting mentor. And they still call and text me after I left. I met some good friends there, that I know call my sisters and my child has life long friends now. I met so many wonderful people there, from business owners, to firefighters, to mayor elects lol and found Jesus. If your reading this review Please call, This place will change your life.
