This 12-18 month program is post shelter housing (Crisis House) and moves families from dependency and abuse to a safe, self-sustaining lifestyle by providing housing, financial help, and mentoring. 

​

Along with the SI Poway Club, members come together to subsidize, furnish, clean and decorate each apartment. This includes not only beds, couches, tables, chairs, televisions, and vacuums, but a fully stocked food pantry, linens, kitchen items, and cleaning supplies.

​

When the family has maintained self-sufficiency and is ready to move on to an independent lifestyle, they have the option of taking everything with them.

​

The Poway and North San Diego Clubs have been helping Domestic Violence Survivors reclaim their lives in a positive, supportive environment since 1997.  We have assisted 79 mothers, 190 children to date and many are waiting. This program enjoys a success rate of about 80% and is highly motivational.
