Programs offered for adult women and their children at king's home serve those who are primarily escaping domestic violence. This long-term, two-year program operates 10 residential group homes in three alabama counties serving up to 200 abused mothers and children daily. Referrals are received from churches, courts, law enforcement, other similar domestic violence programs, mental health and department of human services. Tangible services to assist mothers include domestic violence counseling, parenting skills, substance abuse classes, education, employment, housing, child-care services, and transportation. We offer a structured program where women May live for up to two years. A longer-term residential program such as this allows the mothers time necessary to pursue education goals, job training and/or gainful employment to become independent and successful. The 10 homes for women and moms with children are 95% funded by private donors. With the opportunity for mom and child to start fresh and break the cycle of abuse, king's home not only provides a way for a better life, but our communities and society benefit as well.
