A Place for Mommies and Grannies
We are looking to adopt the program of Alpha Omega Miracle Home for the North Chesterfield area. We believe that there are those who with the proper help and guidance will make a positive impact on their and others lives.. We are awed to be a part of this program
G.R.O.W. HOUSING
When we place young mothers and their children with senior women, they become family. Young mothers gain wisdom and benefit from the senior’s life experiences. Seniors realize they are much needed, valued and loved. We want to help our residents G.R.O.W. in a program designed to give them the ability to achieve small, short-term goals, along with long-term goals. With guidance and a simple checklist, participants learn and complete these four steps:
Gain knowledge of what needs to change in your life
Rise to the challenge of what it takes to make those changes
Open the door to the new changes in your life
Win success by becoming self-sustaining
Someone who was helped
Looking back over all my trials and difficult circumstances, I can see how miraculously God’s Hand has always been pulling me close to Him. I needed to learn:
- How to parent my two children with special needs
- How to walk close to the Lord
- How to love and be loved in a way that was honoring to Christ
THE PROGRAMS
Housing is available for single mothers who are 18 – 28 years of age with up to two children ages six and under. Program completion ranges from two months to two years.
Our supportive housing program is for displaced and homeless women, 60 years of age and older, who can live independently. Housing may be made available on a permanent basis. We want to honor the gifts and contributions of senior residents in a family environment. These ladies often find a new calling when paired with young, single mothers and children. Senior residents have access to professional services from on-site case managers and counselors. Transportation can be provided for medical appointments, grocery shopping, attending church or community activities. Seniors also receive support and encouragement through our community partners.
Professional Services are also available to help residents progress and G.R.O.W.
Confidential counseling is managed by a licensed mental health counselor and on-site case managers. Counseling includes assessments and weekly individual and group sessions.
Each individual’s journey of faith is supported through Bible studies, access to mentors and the opportunity to be involved in a local church of their choice.
Students continue their education through GED, First Coast Technical College or St. Johns River State College.
Life Skill training through budgeting, cooking, parenting, household management, etc… gives them the skills and confidence to manage everyday life.
Through our partnership with local businesses and career specialists, we can connect residents to opportunities to learn practical job and communication skills. Services also include resume writing and career-path goal setting.
Each step is an accomplishment. Participants stay organized on their way to using new tools and taking the next step toward self-sufficiency. We celebrate program completion with a graduation event to acknowledge new-found insights, life skills and confidence.
Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future.
