About:
Inwood House is a residence for pregnant and parenting teens who are homeless, in foster care, or aged out of foster care.
Mission
Inwood House helps teens take charge of their lives by facilitating development of life skills and self-esteem, making responsible decisions, and avoiding teenage pregnancy. They provide a continuum of care for pregnant and parenting teens in foster care that builds on their strengths and moves them toward self-sufficiency, along with providing an environment of hope, guidance and opportunity.
Our Partnership
Mobilizing Volunteers
Our volunteers provide Inwood House mothers and their children a calm and fun space to explore arts and crafts over the weekend, when residents have a break from programming in the home and school and work responsibilities outside it.
Creativity From Our Volunteers
Our female volunteers share their own experiences with residents as they create together. Moms with kids and young professionals alike, our volunteers have made everything from cupcakes to painted flower pots with residents.
Why We Love This Affiliate
Inwood House provides pregnant or parenting teens aged out of foster care with educational and childcare support as they encourage them to become independent and healthy adults.
Inwood House is there to help me become the best parent I can be. I am determined to make sure my baby will always have me for support, protection and love.
