About this resource

Life Start Village is a self-sufficiency initiative designed to provide secure housing and various support services for single-parent families who are overcoming issues such as homelessness, domestic violence, or substance abuse. The program creates a nurturing environment that allows families to address past traumas, strengthen relationships, and enhance their financial well-being. The initial phase features a dormitory-style living arrangement, and families can progress to more independent housing after completing this phase.
