The Journey Forward

Every mother deserves more than a safe place to stay. She deserves the opportunity to build a future.

Since opening our doors in 2017, In My Shoes has walked alongside pregnant women experiencing homelessness by providing safe housing, compassionate support, and a community where hope can begin again. More than 90 mothers and their babies have found stability, encouragement, and the opportunity for a fresh start through our ministry.

Today, we are taking the next step. Through The Journey Forward, In My Shoes is expanding our vision to provide holistic support that addresses the physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and practical barriers that often stand between a mother and the future she desires for her family.

Our work begins with safe housing, but it doesn't end there.

We help women heal from trauma, develop life skills, strengthen their families, pursue education and employment, secure stable housing, and move toward long-term independence.

Because we aren't simply providing shelter. We're building futures.

Every step forward matters, and every gift helps make that journey possible.

Join us as we walk alongside mothers on The Journey Forward.

Our Needs

Your gift to In My Shoes is an investment in transformation.

This North Texas Giving Day, we're raising $75,000 to support the women and families we serve through every stage of The Journey Forward.

Your generosity helps provide:

  • Safe housing and basic necessities
  • Trauma-informed care and emotional wellness support
  • Parenting education and life skills training
  • Employment and financial literacy resources
  • Transportation assistance
  • Case management and mentorship
  • Pathways to long-term housing and independence

Every dollar helps a mother move from crisis to confidence, from homelessness to stability, and from surviving to thriving.

Together, we're not just meeting today's needs—we're helping build stronger families, healthier communities, and brighter futures for generations to come.

Mission
