Only Home They Had

Brittney arrived at Samaritan Inn expecting a baby. She was a single parent with no one else to turn to, nowhere else to go. A few months later, she had a baby boy at the hospital. They returned here, the only home they had. They had each other, all the newborn items needed, full provision, and safety. For personal and bonding time, mothers and children have private bedrooms with shared living areas in a separate building from other guests. Brittney had access to all the social services available to gain independent living. They had hope for a promising future together, a family kept intact.

Mother’s Day is a time to honor and appreciate the work and sacrifice mothers make for their children. Motherhood is challenging enough, but being homeless too makes it all the more demanding. We celebrate the day with a special meal and gift items for mothers.
