The days and weeks after a baby is born should be some of the happiest for new families. But for parents and infants experiencing homelessness, the uncertainty of their living situation can cause stress and lead to an unstable foundation for development. This scenario led Family Promise in Spokane, Washington, to create Infant House, a transitional shelter designed specifically for families with newborns.
Join SchoolHouse Connection and Family Promise to learn more about the prevalence and impacts of homelessness on infants and expectant parents and hear how Infant House is transforming the most critical time of development for infants and families experiencing homelessness.
