I wonder if they've fixed the security issues. I remember boys being snuck into the house and girls getting drunk on the top floor.

I was here when I was 16 years old. I was 12 weeks pregnant and out of options. I was like any teen rebellious and out of control and definitely heading towards destruction in 2011 I met Ms Diane and her wonderful staff they accepted me with open arms. I stayed here from the time I was 12 weeks pregnant until my son was 11 months. I seen another review where someone said the staff is controlling 😆 I used to feel this way to one time Ms. Diane grounded me for 3 months ( she had very good reason to do so even though I didn't think so at the time) also to the lady saying the fail to buy formula my son was on nutramagen and wic only covers like 10 cans a month, and everymonth I would run out of wic and the staff would buy my sons 40$ cans of formula until my wic hit again my baby never went hungry! My son had colic and the staff was very helpful teaching me how to care for him. They would also regularly keep him in the house moms room so I could get sleep for school this place was truly a godsend. I'm the mom I am today because of hands of mercy everywhere I am a mother of 6 now all boys ages 10, 8, 5, 3, and twin 1 year olds and I am very married to an amazing man. I also have a very strong and close relationship with the lord yes we were made to go to church I didn't like it then but I sure appreciate it now. Thank you Ms. Diane and all of her staff

Horrid place, when my friend had her baby they refused to buy her formula and wouldn't let her go pick her child up from daycare. Her child was sick for 4 months and they refused to take her to the hospital. They treat the girls terribly. Yes they may be a Christian group home but that gives them no right to force a religion on anyone. The amount of things I've heard that have happened here is atrocious
