The goal of the Children's Program is to promote one of the most powerful longer-term solutions to homelessness—breaking the generational cycle of dependency.

We serve newborns to 17-year-olds every year. These children and young people reside in our shelter and residential program with their mothers, who are taking the brave and determined steps towards self-sufficiency. Our children know first-hand the obstacles and dangers that come with chronic poverty, such as victimization, instability, inconsistent friendships, low self-esteem and poor academic performance.

Kids Having Fun

Our Children’s Program provides on-site activities. It is one of the most powerful tools we provide families. Children who participate in the program experience themselves and their peers independent of their disadvantaged home lives. The knowledge that they are more than just “homeless kids” is a positive influence that can stay with them for life. In addition, children experience:

Strengthened coping skills
Improved self-esteem
Gain in social skills
Access to tutoring and homework help


Through a wide range of age appropriate activities, our Children's Program addresses the needs of homeless children. These activities include art projects, games, music activities and special guests such as Gabriel's Angels and Therapeutic Ranch for Animals and Kids (TRAK Tucson).
