Center for Women & Children"Come to me, all you that are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28 If you need housing at the Center for Women & Children, call 317.687.3630. Our location is 3208 E Michigan St, Indianapolis, IN 46201.
Hundreds of women and mothers with children enter our doors seeking food, clothing and housing. The women find these vital needs supplied, but they also experience love and compassion, bringing rest for their weary souls. National studies indicate that the fastest growing segment of the homeless population consists of women and mothers with children, making the services offered at the CWC imperative to our community. The average stay at the CWC is three months. During that time ladies are given Biblical counseling, job readiness training, job leads, educational assessment and tutoring, medical services, addiction counseling and encouragement to enter one of our long term residential programs. Within the CWC there are four main programs. Click here for a short description of the Emergency Housing program, a Special Needs Program, the Working Guest Program and the Higher Ground Program. Everyone who seeks assistance from the CWC is given the necessities of food, clothing and housing. In addition, the CWC also offers:
90 beds providing emergency and long-term housing 35 mats for Winter Contingency needs Bible studies, 3 days a week Group therapy sessions for seeking recovery from addictions Medical clinics twice a week, staffed by Gennesaret and Homeless Initiative Program These items help in the short term, but when the Gospel of Jesus Christ is shared and women are given Biblical instructions on how to live, lives are changed!

Begun in the early 90's by a group of concerned businessmen, the Care Center merged with Wheeler Mission Ministries in 2001. In 2009, the Care Center was renamed the Center for Women & Children (CWC). The CWC provides an environment that is safe physically, emotionally and spiritually..jpg)
