Project Goals
While each community is unique from one another, the goal is to reflect our mission:
“Building a sustainable community for women in need of an alternative solution to ending violence”
Each project may differ in operations, resources, environment, and culture but we aim to accomplish what our mission is: “to provide women and children facing violence, alternative housing.” Years of experience from our seasoned team has given us an ability to understand and become flexible with change and ultimately paving a new and creative path to achieving those goals.
Our goal is to construct tiny homes and larger structures to accommodate individuals in our community. These homes will be built within the land obtained and provide some privacy for small families. Mothers with children will be placed in tiny homes while single women will have their own rooms within a larger house and live dorm style. Our plans include having a communal main house where counseling, enrichment classes, entertainment and dinners will be held and where staff will reside. Our agenda is to provide the following for everyone one in our community in three different categories: Accommodations, Rehabilitation, & Empowerment .
