Expect Hope

Expect Hope, a Christ-centered supportive residence for expectant mothers, provides a safe residence for mothers who desire to prepare a life for their new families. It is a privately funded, non­profit organization serving women in the Bronx, New York.

Expect Hope provides essential social services through a holistic approach that addresses the material, emotional, and spiritual needs of each woman. The program equips each mother with Biblical guidance, training, and mentoring. The women receive loving guidance toward reconciliation with God, themselves, and others as they understand and apply the work of Jesus Christ in their lives. As she awaits the new life of her child, each woman can anticipate a future that will be different from the past.

We serve pregnant women, ages 18 and older, without guardianship of any other children, who desire to parent their children and express a genuine desire to build independent, self­-sustainable lives.

Our Program & Services include:

• Housing for unsupported expectant mothers until their children turn two years old.
• A Life Skills curriculum preparing residents for independent living.
• Goal planning towards a self-sustainable life.
• Biblical teaching and guidance.
• Individualized academic tutoring to advance the education of each resident.
• A job placement program to prepare residents and assist them to find employment.
• Continual physical, emotional, and spiritual support from staff members and mentors.
