Hope House Canon City

The Hope House Cañon City Residential Program offers a safe, stable home for teen moms and their children who have become homeless, are living in an unsafe environment or are in an environment that is unable to support them. The home has four bedrooms that can provide teen moms up to a week of respite care, up to nine months of transitional housing or up to two years of comprehensive programming. While at the house, our moms will be engaged and challenged through self-sufficiency programming provided by partners in Cañon City who can help teen moms finish high school, prep for college or a career, gain access to childcare and receive the essential resources they need to provide for their children. While at the house, teen moms will learn how to incorporate healthy routines into daily life while living with their children and their peers in a safe, supportive environment.

Empowering Teen Moms

Hope House Cañon City provides free self-sufficiency programs to parenting teen moms in two key areas. The Empower Program provides opportunities for personal, educational and economic self-sufficiency for teen moms. The Housing Support Program provides Southern Colorado’s only Residential Program for teen moms. Both programs are designed to transform the lives of two generations at Hope House.

Hope House Programs

Teen moms are one of the most vulnerable yet overlooked groups in our community, with less than 2% graduating from college and only half earning a high school diploma. Our Hope House Programs offer tangible hope, providing a variety of free services designed to help teen moms become self-sufficient members of their community who are also nurturing, loving parents. These programs provide a menu-style approach to services that allows our teen moms to define their own goals and then select the program components that will help them reach their goals.
