Pregnant and Alone?
Make a Life Decision!

For the past 30 years, Casa Teresa has been home to more than 2,300 pregnant women.  Casa Teresa provides a place for women who have chosen to keep their babies after birth or place them for adoption.  These women come from all areas and all walks of life to an environment of shared housing, responsibility and rehabilitation. 

The Parenting Program, The Adoption Program “Hannah’s House”, and the Transition Program (Phase I & Phase II) for single mothers.

The Casa Teresa experience is transformational, offering women with no means of support the opportunity to become self-sufficient.

Our Vision and Mission

Casa Teresa provides a temporary home and on-going support for pregnant women 18 years of age and older who are alone.  Counseling and educational programs prepare these women to make loving and informed decisions for themselves and their babies.

Our mission is to assist pregnant women 18 years and older to achieve self-sufficiency and independence.
