Welcome to Almost Home

Mission:  Almost Home inspires teenage moms to create a better life for themselves and their children.

 Not your traditional homeless person, our teens are not sleeping on park benches or under bridges.   But when a pregnant or parenting teen is thrown out of her house, exhausts the couches of all her friends, or is in an abusive or dangerous living situation, she is HOMELESS.   Almost Home provides a safe shelter and support for these teenage mothers and their children.  We give these young women hope, and provide help to become self-sufficient through a structured, individualized program.    As the young mothers set and reach their goals, their self-esteem increases, in turn, this helps them to make healthy choices in their life and their relationships.  We help them stop living from crisis to crisis, and teach them to create stability so that they can develop outlined strategies for the future – to pause, plan and proceed.  Almost Home values a close interaction with the young mothers; Program staff members are on-site 24 hours a day, each day of the year.  Almost Home provides a spacious, family-style living environment for 15 young mothers and up to 25 of their children at a time.
