Of the nine women confirmed to have the Zika virus, two lost their pregnancy, two actively terminated them and three gave birth. Two others are continuing with their pregnancies. t’s early in the morning at Bethlehem House, and our campus is already bustling with activity as children get ready for school, mothers prep for a busy workday, and some of the grandparents that live on the grounds step out for a morning walk.
It was clear right away that we were meeting a dire need. Prior to arriving at Bethlehem House, 98% of our residents were chronically homeless, 92% suffered from addiction, 86% had ahistory, and 100% were below the poverty line with little or no family support. One hundred percent of our women also reported feeling abandoned, abused, and neglected by family or someone close to them.
We’ve been blessed to see so many women completely turn their lives around. Seventy-six percent leave our care completely free from reliance on government assistance, welfare, and food stamps. A shocking 96% of our residents break the cycle of homelessness and maintain stable housing, and 50% of our current and former residents are working toward a college degree or mastering a trade. Nearly 86% of our residents achieve and maintain sobriety.
