Overview

Mission

Project home indy, co. (phi) provides a nurturing residential environment to teenage women who are pregnant or parenting and have been subjected to unstable living conditions. Located in indianapolis, phi is committed to using a holistic and culturally sensitive approach to offer programs and activities in areas of life skills, education, and healthcare. Programs are offered internally or through community partnerships in order to promote self-sufficiency of their residents. Phi has the following core goals: increase completion of high school or ged, increase enrollment in technical/post secondary education, increase employability and employment opportunities, increase healthy parenting and life skills, increase access to pediatric and maternal health care, prevent repeat teen pregnancy, transition successfully to independent living, and decrease dependency on public assistance programs.

What it reported doing in 2021

Project home indy, inc. (phi) supports teen mothers' needs for a safe and healthy environment to encourage individual and family success.

Phi's program aims to break the cycle of poverty. In addition to extended-stay residential services in a safe, structured and supportive environment, phi offers each teen a comprehensive assessment designed to determine the appropriate type and intensity of services needed for her.
