Maternity Home

 

Welcome home! If you’re pregnant, feel alone, and are without reliable housing, Vida is here to help. In the summer of 2023, Vida will be opening a maternity home, Trinity House, in the Fox Valley to help ensure that if you, as a woman, are facing an unexpected pregnancy or parenting young children under challenging circumstances, you feel supported, loved, and safe. 

Vida’s new maternity home program will provide free housing, life-changing programming, and a supportive community in a residential setting. Our professional and compassionate staff will meet you where you are at in your pregnancy or parenting journey.

With integrated programming and services through Vida, Trinity House will be a place of love, growth, and empowerment. Your value will be recognized and respected. You’ll be a part of safe and loving community. You’ll participate in life-changing programming that builds life, career, and relational skills. You’ll be equipped and empowered to overcome obstacles and improve the trajectory of your life and the life of your child.

Become a Resident

We expect to open Trinity House in the summer of 2023. Applications to become a resident are projected to be available in summer 2023. Please check back on this webpage regularly or call Vida at 920-731-4354 to learn more.

We will welcome women at every stage of pregnancy, regardless of age, race, religion, color, social background, national origin, or marital status. We encourage you to seek our assistance as early in your pregnancy as possible to best help you and your child. There will be an application and intake process for those interested in being a part of this maternity home community and program.

We will provide free housing and support throughout your entire pregnancy and for a pre-determined amount of time after your child is born (based on your child’s infant developmental progress and your specific needs.) With our network of community partners, we will work with you to secure safe, reliable housing and other basic needs as you transition out of Vida’s maternity home too. 

We encourage you to contact us with questions or more information. We are here for you and look forward to welcoming you “home” with great love, compassion, and support!
