Maggie's Place
Goal of Program
Maggie’s Place provides safe housing and a nurturing community for pregnant and parenting women experiencing homelessness, empowering them to thrive throughout their lifetime. Americorps members live in the homes alongside moms and teammates sharing meals, doing chores, celebrating accomplishments, and working through hard things together. Members take initiative in a variety of situations that range from a mom going into labor, to roommate conflicts, to showing hospitality to visitors and new community members. They create a safe, welcoming, home-like environment for the moms so moms can focus on achieving their goals.
