Late one Friday afternoon, a frightened teenage mom and her 8-month-old baby learned that the place that they had called “home” was no longer available to them. Can you imagine the panic this teenager felt as she realized that she and her baby were temporarily homeless? Fortunately, a VEFC family was immediately contacted and without hesitation agreed to welcome this young mother and her baby into their home. During the time needed to locate a permanent living situation for both the teenage mom and her baby, the VEFC family not only provided safe shelter, but also much needed mentoring and support.
