The Alumni Care Program

We challenge our mothers to learn and become empowered to successfully live beyond their time at CityHouse. We conduct follow-up evaluations with program graduates through the structure of this program. The Alumni Care Program offers continued access to services and support over a five-year, step-down program to ensure graduates transition well into independent and healthy living. Our evaluations have consistently shown that graduates exit our program with the ability to provide for their families well beyond the scope of basic needs.
