Our Programs

Early Childhood Education Program

Every child deserves a loving, nurturing and non-discriminatory environment.

Our developmentally appropriate, play-based curriculum prepares all children, including those with special needs, for the challenges ahead.

This is achieved through low teacher-to-child ratios, continually educated staff, and special attention to each individual child.

Mom’s House is a state-licensed, Gold Level Step Up To Quality childcare center.

Family Wellness Program

Our family-oriented environment helps build support for the young parents we serve and, in turn, improves confidence and self-esteem.

We strive to give our clients the tools they need to succeed, become productive members of society, and break the cycles of poverty and welfare.

Parent Education Program

The growth and development of each family is fostered through education, counseling, mentoring, parent education classes, and tutoring.

The physical, spiritual and social needs of each parent and child are met, and our clients have the unique opportunity to become part of a community where they are supported and loved.

Sisters-in-Law Program

Sisters-in-Law is a group of female attoneys working toward the continued improvement of the lives of the moms and children at Mom’s House.

They provide pro bono legal services, mentoring, and life and career coaching.

Meetings are held quarterly at Mom’s House.

DADS Matter Program

DADS Matter stands for Dedicated Accountable Determined & Strong.

The need for a father in the life of a child is critical. This program aims to engage and empower young men in the lives of their children through consistent and positive contact. We hope to help fathers set priorities and develop effective parenting skills.

During meetings, we emphasize the important role of fathers in supporting a child’s physical, emotional, and behavioral needs; the benefits of a positive relationship; and the risks of failing to fulfill responsibilities.
