welcome them home

Helping Up Mission’s Center for Women & Children opened its doors to women in early 2022 – and soon, we’ll offer a refuge for mothers with infants. This state-of-the-art, 145,000-square-foot facility — with room for up to 200 women and 50 children — provides:
Nourishing, healthy meals
Safe shelter, with special family suites
Clothes, toiletries, and feminine hygiene items
Counseling, Bible classes, and addiction recovery
Health and dental care
Education and workforce development
Using Helping Up Mission’s proven recovery principles, the Center will help women and children holistically — body, soul, and spirit — giving them a path out of homelessness to transformed lives.
