Machiah's House is a non-profit agency in its beginning stages and in need of building donor support to help obtain start-up funds; for a safe transitional group home & housing expenses, etc secured and opened by June 1st 2023.

The program will focus primarily on "at risk" young female adults between the ages of 18 to 21 who have aged-out from foster care system. This age group is particularly problematic and a perfect time for mentoring to be effective.

Young female adults 18- 21 who come to us from severely stressed family systems, will receive a nurturing environment with love as we seek to break the destructive cycle of abuse, neglect, and shame and replace it with an opportunity for each young adult to live a life of self-respect, responsibility and productivity.

The goal of Machiah's House is to identify young female adults who are going to have a turbulent transition to adulthood and derail their lives and to provide young adults with a stable, secure and nurturing transitional group home because we believe that the very best environment for a young adult to grow up in is within a supported unit.

Our agency will ensure... Honesty, Integrity and Ethical in all interactions, A right for all young adults to be safe and respected as they realize their fullest potential for their lives, A nurturing environment that emphasizes personal responsibility, positive communication, effective decision-making and appropriate expression of one's awareness.

The needs and welfare of the young adult is paramount at all times and our services will reflect this.
