The Agape Women's and Children's Home was established in 1973.
Its purpose is to provide emergency shelter and transitional housing for homeless women and single women with children.
Today the Agape Home provides a stable, nurturing environment for women with
children. The women at the Agape Home are involved in daily routines, including household chores and job searches.
"I was able to change my life with the help and care of the women who
worked at the Agape Home. These women are very compassionate and an asset to Agape Home." -Former Guest
