Empowering Futures Transforming Lives.
El Shaddai Refuge Homes is here for everyone, especially those who might be facing tough times. We help men, women, and kids, putting a special focus on young adults who have aged out of foster care. Our goal is to prevent homelessness and provide more than just a place to stay.
For these young adults, we offer more than just a roof over their heads. We give them direct access to useful services, practical skills for life, and a community of caring people. We aim to make their journey into adulthood smoother and surrounded by supportive friends who understand where they've been.
We want to remove any obstacles they might face, making their journey to stability as easy as possible. Alongside the basics like a place to stay, and help with transportation, childcare, food, and clothes, we offer extra support like job training, money management workshops, childcare services, and classes on important life skills.
El Shaddai Refuge Homes is all about creating a caring community that helps everyone, making sure everyone has the support they need to thrive.
