Our Goal

 

At The Teresa McCoy House, our mission is to help individuals rebuild their lives from the ground up. We are deeply committed to providing support to those in need, offering them the resources and guidance necessary to create a fresh start. Our vision is to foster a community where members come together, volunteering their time and resources to empower survivors as they regain stability and independence. To achieve this, we aim to provide access to safe housing, nutritious food, clean clothing, assistance with state benefits, daycare information, vocational training, GED classes, and hands-on job experience. While we recognize the magnitude of this mission, we are confident that, with collective effort and sufficient resources, this vision can become a life-changing reality for those we serve.
