Victoria admitted her two children to Providence House in order to deliver a baby. She was a past client and trusted the services that Providence House had to offer.
Victoria was scheduled to be induced for labor and needed a safe place for her children to stay. While her children were at Providence House, they were transported to and from school daily by childcare staff, and Victoria completed phone-based case management services with her social worker.
Victoria delivered a healthy baby boy and spent a few days at home and in the hospital recovering and then was reunited with her other children. At discharge, she was provided with items for her newborn such as clothing, diapers, and wipes. She was also provided with the clothing that her other children received from Providence House as well as toys.

Dominique reached out to Providence House for her three year old daughter as she was homeless and was unable to stay doubled-up with her daughter. Dominique was employed at Family Dollar and had childcare for her daughter, but no housing.
During the service period, Dominique completed case management, parent education, and trauma services. She also visited her daughter at least twice a week for at least an hour at a time. Providence House was able to provide transportation for her daughter daily, to her Head Start program, and she also attended a field trip to the Children’s Museum of Cleveland and participated in trick-or-treating for Halloween.
Dominique maintained employment at Family Dollar and saved enough money to rent a room of a house for her and her daughter to live in while she waited on a Cleveland Metropolitan Housing Authority (CMHA) unit to become available. Dominique is now enrolled in the aftercare program and has been maintained her housing, childcare, and employment.
