Programs and Services

Programs & Services

All programs offered at j. Isaiah’s are varied, but each program and focus group share the common goal of assisting women who are in need of prenatal care, shelter, support, and rescuing. We also aim to meet the immediate needs, care, and safety of each woman; as well as enhance their opportunities for optimum growth, development, and responsibility. We thrive to meet teens and women where they are when they enter the doors of The Butterfly Home, and assist them in building or rebuilding their futures and relationships with their children, family and themselves. Our work and programs are data driven and measurable. Progress is closely monitored by self-assessments, mental evaluations, and attitudes.
