We Love Abilene
Family Care Program
Dedicated to supporting single parents in our community
We are excited to announce the Family Care Program, a new sub-ministry of We Love Abilene, dedicated to supporting single parents in our community. This program partners with landlords within our church to house single parents, while providing case management and rental subsidy to help families gain financial independence while offering practical resources and spiritual mentorship. Through financial literacy education, monthly check-ins, and mentorship, we aim to meet both the material and spiritual needs of participants, empowering them to build stable, healthy lives for their families.
How you can help
Mentors: We are seeking church members who are willing to provide Gospel-centered encouragement and guidance to participants. Mentorship plays a crucial role in helping single parents grow spiritually while navigating the challenges of life. Mentors will be required to pass a background check, attend a short one-on-one training with WLA staff and meet with their participant at least monthly over the course of the year they participate in our program.
Welcome Basket Items: As part of welcoming new participants into the program, we are collecting items such as household supplies, toiletries, cleaning products, and personal care items to help single parents feel supported from day one.
