Loaves and Fishes transitional sheltering program for women with children is called Zacchaeus House. Transitional sheltering means 24/7 longer term housing that will offer the opportunity for residents to get the job training and experience, education and other long-term solutions needed to get and keep permanent housing.
Zacchaeus House is a home that can house up to 3 small families of moms with 2-3 children. Each family has their own furnished bedroom and sitting room and shares 2 full bathrooms, 1 kitchen and living rooms with the other families. Zacchaeus House is a drug and alcohol free environment. Zacchaeus House residents must be working, in school, or be participating in, or applying for job avialablity through Work First at Capital Area Michigan Works – https://www.michiganworks.org/.
Guests at our transitional houses pay a nominal monthly program fee that covers just a fraction of the services we offer to them. This helps teach the guests money management and accountability, as well as helps them with budgeting and feeling that they are a partner in their service plan, as they prepare to move into their own housing.
