A Home not an Institution

There is some stigma associated with "homes for pregnant girls" because of the operation of group homes in the 50's and 60's. Imagine this, things change! I'm thankful they do and we progress forward instead of remaining stagnant or digressing back to the past.

GeoVi's Home is planned to be home away from home for pregnant teens who would prefer to be away from her community during her pregnancy. She and her parents are choosing this difficult situation when parents feel this is when they are needed most. However, putting their daughter's and that of her unborn child's interest at the forefront, this difficult decision is made.

Families can arrange visits during the pregnancy of their sister, friend or daughter. This will depend on a few factors but nothing that will eliminate visits from family.

Teens will be in a loving Christian home with Direct Care Assistants to help them during this new experience. GeoVi's Home has not been built yet but it will be a place for mommies-to-be free! We are offering them alternatives to abortion, dropping out of school, becoming a burden to an already overburdened system or financial burden to parents.
