🏠 About Lydia's House of Hope

Our transitional-living program is for women and children who have been affected by homelessness due to poverty, domestic violence, addiction, and generational trauma.

Lydia's House of Hope provides a highly structured faith-based program for one year. Single women as well as mothers with children are provided with:

• Case management: Comprehensive support tailored to individual needs.
• Nurse advocacy: Access to medical support and resources.
• Occupational therapy: Skills development for everyday living.
• Mental health counseling: Support for emotional well-being.
• Substance abuse counseling: Guidance and support for recovery.
• Trauma therapy: Strategies for healing past traumas.
• Life skills classes: Over 50 classes covering various necessary skills.

Lydia's House of Hope believes a holistic program helps families to heal as well as provides the skills necessary to transition from homelessness to wholeness.

🤝 Get Involved

We invite you to contact us or volunteer and learn how you, along with our community, can transform the lives of women, mothers, and children.

We are pleased to introduce Grace House, the newest LHOH step-up program especially for semi-independent living. We give women the skills to end generational trauma and we stay connected with them on their journey to wholeness.
