The mission of The Women’s Home is to help women in crisis regain their self-esteem and dignity, empowering them to return to society as productive, self-sufficient individuals.
In 1957, a young woman named Mary Brown sought assistance from a Houston-area rescue mission for men. Since the agency had no facilities for women—in fact, no such facilities existed in the city at the time—she was referred to Mrs. W. E. Sampson, a local church and community leader. Mrs. Sampson took Mary Brown into her own home and began discussions with her friends about establishing a place where women like Mary could heal and rebuild their lives. Their efforts resulted in the founding of The Women’s Home.
Over the past 50 years, The Women’s Home has grown to help thousands of women in our community escape from destructive cycles of crisis and given them a chance to rebuild their lives. The program targets women who have become homeless due to mental illness and/or substance abuse. Unique in Houston, The Home provides women with integrated, long-term (up to 18 months) residential care, psychiatric and nurse practitioner services, psychotherapy, chemical dependency services and vocational and spiritual development programs all based on The Home’s WholeLife Treatment Model.
