St. Elizabeth Lodge is a program for single moms and their children who are experiencing a time of transition and need a soft place to fall. Our families come from situations of eviction, domestic violence, family break-up, couch surfing, or reunification. All of our families are unique in their circumstances, but all share in experiencing a difficult transition. Residents at St. Elizabeth Lodge enjoy an apartment to call home, the safety of a secure facility, and the support of others in a similar situation.
