Transitional Housing Program

The Transitional Housing Program (THP) serves a limited number of adolescent clients (ages 16-19) who are in the process of emancipating from the foster care program. The goal is to successfully transition youth out of the foster care system. The primary objective for youth in the THP is a safe living situation and the ability to be self-supporting (for some youth, self-supporting may mean accessing resources such as financial aid, student loans or relative assistance).

Transitional housing teaches foster youth first-hand what it is like to live independently. It provides youth with the opportunity to try, fail, and learn new methods of behaving and living in the community while at the same time giving them a safe place to practice their new skills.

Meeting my mom after joining her small group Bible study created an instant connection in my heart and once I met my Dad and experienced the love and caring that my brothers and sisters showed me, I was convinced that this was the family I was to be a part of. They have provided me the security and comfort that I have been seeking for a very long time. I am proud to be their daughter and sister.
