Positive Impact on Women
Safe and Stable Housing
Security and Stability: IHRM provides a safe, stable environment, allowing women to focus on their recovery and personal development without the immediate pressure of finding housing.
Reduced Recidivism: Stable housing significantly reduces the likelihood of reoffending as women have the security needed to build new, law-abiding lives.
Comprehensive Support Services
Employment Assistance: IHRM, in collaboration with Hazelbrook/WAGEES, offers job training, resume building, and employment placement services helping our women to gain financial independence.
Educational Opportunities: IHRM provides access to pursue higher education or acquire new skills.

Self-Esteem and Confidence: By participating in supportive community and skill-building activities, women rebuild their self-esteem and develop the confidence needed to succeed.
Community
Integration
Supportive Networks: IHRM fosters a sense of community and belonging by helping women build positive relationships and support networks that are crucial for long-term success.
Civic Engagement: Encouraging community involvement and volunteerism helps women reconnect with society and contribute positively to their communities.
Positive Impact on Children
Family Reunification
Stability for Children: Children benefit immensely when their mothers have stable housing and support. A safe home environment provides the stability needed for healthy development.
Reduced Foster Care: Successful reentry of mothers reduces the need for children to be placed in foster care, keeping families together.
Emotional and Psychological Well-being
Positive Role Models: When mothers succeed in their transition, they become positive role models for their children, demonstrating resilience, responsibility, and the value of hard work.
Improved Mental Health: A stable and nurturing environment reduces stress and anxiety in children, leading to better mental health outcomes.
Educational Success
Better School Performance: Stability at home often translates to improved academic performance. Children with secure home environments are more likely to attend school regularly and perform better academically.
Future Opportunities: When mothers are empowered to pursue education and employment, they can better support their children’s educational aspirations, breaking the cycle of poverty and disadvantage.
Social and Behavioral Benefits
Stronger Family Bonds: IHRM facilitate family reunification and strengthen mother-child relationships, fostering a sense of belonging and security. Children in stable environments are less likely to engage in delinquent behavior and more likely to develop positive social skills.
