Perpetual Help Home is a permanent supported housing program helping women and their children in hardship circumstances. Their situations vary: recent release from prison or jail, serious substance abuse problems, homelessness, or domestic violence.

We have helped these women get on their feet through job training, network building, and a focus on financial stability. The program is structured in increments to slowly transition residents from dependence on the home though they are still living here.

We are a registered Christian Women's Job Corps site, and we provide job and life skills training through this program. We also provide volunteers who guide our women through this process. Residents must attempt several milestones -- from purchasing their own vehicle to saving toward a down payment to buy a home, or saving enough money to prevent future homelessness.

We are a Christian ministry, and we believe involvement with a local church is a vital part of providing support to women who are trying to move out of a difficult situation. This prevents the isolation from society so many of these women experience and provides accountability to both the women in the program and the community to support them.
