The Drake House provides short-term crisis housing, education and empowerment programs for homeless single mothers and their children, designed to provide stability for the children and assist the family in working toward self-sufficiency. The Drake House provides fully furnished private apartment homes to families. Each apartment has a complete kitchen, furnishings, computer with internet access. All housing costs including utilities, insurance, and maintenance are provided for families during their stay. The apartments are inspected each week to ensure compliance to the program. All family members attend mandatory weekly life skills classes at The Drake Center. Life skills classes for the mothers address: budgeting/ financial literacy, parenting, health and wellness, boundary setting, organizational skills, and relationship skills. Volunteers provide dinner and care of preschool aged children. Tutors assist elementary and middle school students with homework. Middle and high school students participate in Junior Achievement Courses led by volunteers. Roswell Rotary presented a check in the amount of $5000 to support housing costs for a family.
