Description

We began in 2011 with the Dream Centers Women's Clinic. We serve women ages 13-64, with a focus on GYN health. The Women’s Clinic is the only free clinic in the area that offers medical care specializing in women’s health. Women who experience poverty and homelessness often skip preventative care and ignore dangerous symptoms due to the high cost and not knowing where to turn. We care for thousands of women a year.

In 2015 Dream Centers Mary's Home opened.

Mary’s Home is a long term (2-5 years) supportive housing community that helps women and their children 7 years old and younger break free from the cycles of poverty and homelessness. Most of the Mary’s Home residents have experienced physical, sexual, or emotional abuse. Mary's Home is a high challenge, high support program that focuses on safety, stability, education, and career preparation. Mary’s Home mothers have a structured daily schedule of case management, therapy, and life skills courses that promote safety, security, health, character, and skills for future success.
