motherhood is a journey and every journey matters
Our Mission: Supporting Mothers, Building Families, Developing Community, and Upholding Love
Sisters Haven is a faith-based nonprofit providing safe housing, essential resources, and a loving community for under-resourced pregnant and parenting women. With personalized care and strong community partnerships, we empower mothers to build lasting stability and break the cycle of poverty from the very start of their child’s life.
Our Program:
In-House Program - NOW Accepting Applications/Referrals
Our welcoming home will accommodate up to seven pregnant and parenting women. Inside, we create a safe space where women can focus on:
• Building confidence and life skills
• Developing strong parenting abilities
• Preparing for long-term stability
While living at Sisters Haven, mothers also participate in the Sisters Haven SHIFT model, a structured program supporting Stability, Healing, Independence, Faith, and Transformation as they build healthy futures for themselves and their children.
Outreach Program:
Not every mom we serve lives under our roof—but every mom deserves support. Through our Hey Mama Outreach Program, Sisters Haven connects pregnant and parenting women to practical resources, encouragement, and a strong network of care. Through partnerships with more than 40 organizations, mothers also gain access to essential services, including health care, mental health support, nutrition resources, education, and employment opportunities.
Real Stories. Real Hope.

Community Night Around the Table
Make a Difference
One of the most meaningful parts of life at Sisters Haven happens around the dinner table.
Twice each week, our mothers gather for Community Night—a time to share a meal, build friendships, learn new skills, celebrate milestones, and simply enjoy being together. For many of our residents, these evenings become some of their favorite moments because they experience what every family deserves: a place to belong.
We're inviting individuals, families, churches, businesses, and community groups to help make these evenings possible by providing a meal.
Meals Around the Table
When: Two evenings each week (Mondays and Thursdays)
Who: Approximately 6–8 mothers, babies, and staff
Drop-Off Time: Between 4:00–5:00 PM at Sisters Haven
Meals can be:
Homemade or purchased from a restaurant
Prepared by an individual, family, church, workplace, or community group
Simple, comforting, and family-style
Whether you provide one meal or make it a monthly tradition, your generosity allows our mothers to spend less time worrying about dinner and more time focusing on healing, learning, and building community.
Every meal says, "You are loved. You are supported. You are not alone."
Thank you for helping us build community—one meal, one conversation, and one family at a time.
Be Part of the Journey
Your support lifts mothers and babies towards stability, healing, and hope.
Give. Serve. Partner.
Sisters Haven is more than a building — it’s a living, breathing community. As we welcome moms and babies into the home, it truly takes a village to make this house feel like home. Whether you have time to serve, resources to share, or a heart to encourage, there is a meaningful place for you here. And if your season doesn’t allow time to volunteer, you can still make a direct impact by donating or helping meet practical needs through our Amazon Wish List.

Sisters Haven exists because hundreds of people chose to say yes.
From construction and trades to furnishings, design, funding, and countless volunteer hours, this home was built by a community that believed mothers and babies deserve a safe place to land. We are deeply grateful for every heart, every hand, and every gift that helped turn a once-empty house into a living, hope-filled home.

“Sadly, there are too few housing options for pregnant women experiencing homelessness in our community. The arrival of Sisters Haven will be a life-saving option for pregnant women who are sleeping on the streets of Cleveland. Having a therapeutic caring space on the west side of Cleveland to offer women will make us one step closer to ending homelessness and more importantly, It will make all of us better at loving the people we encounter on the street.”
– Chris Knestrick, Executive Director of the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless
