Mission Statement

The mission of Visitation House is to provide a safe, secure, and caring environment for pregnant women in crisis and to prepare women to live as self-sufficient as possible when they leave.

Description

Visitation House was conceived in December of 2007 by Fr. Tom Connery, Pastor of St. Peter Catholic Church.to help fill the need for pregnant women in crisis who had no place to live. Recognizing the need for independence for mission to grow, it was spun off from the church and became Visitation House Inc., a 501(c) not for profit independent legal entity in 2015.

We offer safety, security, personal development, empowerment and growth for the mother. We do this through counseling, case management, positive reinforcement, community resources and assistance in reaching individual personal goals. Visitation House is a temporary home for women during their pregnancy and after childbirth.
