Fresh Start Support Services

Freshstart is an extraordinary service that helps navigate resources and provides support and services to young women and their child(ren). It’s an amazing opportunity, if you are eligible. Freshstart has been a huge help to me personally in the past and I will be forever grateful.

Great organization who loves to help mothers and their children. They have the best staff who help you in anyway they can. They teach you important life lessons like cooking, cleaning and how to take care of your children. They offer great supports like healthy babies healthy children, a doctor who makes house call. They help you get your OSSD and encourage you to take your education further. Overall a great place if your struggling to keep your child and need a safe place to start over.

My son Mason and I stayed at Fresh start for a few great months. Upon moving there I was completely taken out of my comfort zone. Moving to a place I did not know, with people I did not know. I was having very bad anxiety my first few days, but the staff were so welcoming, supportive and would always lend a listening ear. You were always encouraged to try new things, like going to programs outside of Fresh Start. Staff made sure to always communicate with you when it came to anything that involved you. They helped you stay on track so you could achieve your long term goals. Even tho our stay at Fresh start was short, I did learn a lot about not only myself but my son and being a mother as well. I knew I was a different person walking out of Fresh start, but I changed for the better. I am now more confident in all my choices in life and most of all I am confident in being the best Mom I can be for my son.
Today Mason is a happy, playful and smart little guy. He starting saying a few words like "Dada", "Mama" &"Yeah". He loves story time, bath time and cuddling up with Mom and Dad. I am so proud of the little man he is becoming.
I can honestly say if it wasn't for Fresh Start I would not be the Mom I am today. I am so greatful for programs just like Fresh Start!

Fresh Start is exactly as it is named! It is a fresh start for young moms who need the help and independance to make it in this difficult world. Fresh start gave me the chance to have a safe home provided with everything me and my son could ever need and be able to be worry free. I had the chance to step back and focus completely on my son and I. I was able yo attend amamzing in home abd out of home classes for him and I. I was able to attend schooling to further my education with the help of the staff with my son while i attended classes. They taught me to cook and clean and how to balance my son while i did this without being stressed. They were able to help in all day to day activities from bathtime, tummy time to bedtime and are there 24/7 to help with all my awkward questions (the poops ahah). This place saved my son and I and now we have our own 2 bedroom and i have all the tools i need to continue on to be the best parent i can be. I am so greatful to the staff and home for the amazing chance o had.
