At Our Hannah’s House, we believe that every person deserves to live a life free from fear and full of hope through the power of Jesus Christ. Domestic violence and homelessness are not just individual struggles; they are profound societal issues that demand our collective action and unwavering commitment.
Ending Domestic Violence:
Domestic violence is a devastating violation of human dignity and a grave injustice that affects countless lives. We stand firm in our commitment to ending this cycle of abuse. Every individual has the right to safety, respect, and a life without fear. By raising awareness, providing support, and advocating for justice, we strive to create a world where every person can live free from violence and abuse. Our efforts are grounded in compassion and a firm belief that Jesus Christ is our help to serve others.
Ending Homelessness:
Homelessness is a harsh reality for many, and it is a challenge that calls for compassion, systemic change, and practical solutions. No one should be without a place to call home. We are dedicated to addressing the root causes of homelessness and providing pathways to stability and self-sufficiency. Through emergency shelter, transitional housing, job training, and supportive services, we work to ensure that every person has the opportunity to secure and maintain a safe, stable, and dignified home.

Our Hannah's House is a Christian nonprofit organization that seeks to serve women who are unhoused and/or those affected by domestic violence.
Our Hannah's House, which focuses on supporting unhoused women and those affected by domestic violence, here are some needs and considerations for purchasing or renting a home to accommodate at least four women and children. General rental cost in the City of Dallas starts at approx. $1200.
Housing Requirements:
Safety and security is the utmost housing need to ensure the property has secure locks, windows, and possibly a security system to ensure the safety of the residents.
Accessibility: The home should be accessible to women with disabilities if needed, including features like ramps or elevators if required.
Space: Looking for a home with enough bedrooms and bathrooms to comfortably house at least four women. Ideally, each resident should have a private or semi-private space.
Common Areas: Include shared spaces such as a living room, dining area, and kitchen. These areas should be conducive to communal living and support.
2. Location:
Proximity to Support Services: Ideally, the home should be located near essential services like counseling centers, legal assistance, healthcare, and job training programs.
Public Transportation: We will ensure the location has access to public transportation to help residents move around and attend appointments or job interviews.
Safe Neighborhood: The home should be situated in a safe and supportive neighborhood to provide a secure environment for the residents.
Equity Statement for Unhoused Women

We recognize that every woman, regardless of her current circumstances, is a beloved child of God and deserving of respect, compassion, and support.
Our Beliefs:
Inherent Dignity: We believe that every woman is created in the image of God and possesses an inherent dignity that must be honored and upheld. This truth compels us to view unhoused women through a lens of grace, empathy, and respect.
Holistic Support: We acknowledge that unhoused women face unique challenges and systemic barriers that require tailored and comprehensive support. Our commitment is to provide not just immediate relief but also to address the root causes of homelessness and to offer holistic support that includes emotional, spiritual, and practical assistance.
