About this organization
Mission
Empowering homeless women to create stable futures for their families.
About
Dakota Woodlands shelters and provides comprehensive supportive services for women and their children who are homeless. Capable of housing 22 families at a time, Dakota Woodlands sheltered a total of 233 families in 2019. Although the average length of stay in 2019 was 135 days, families can stay in the shelter as long as necessary to successfully transition from homelessness to homes of their own. When they arrive, our support staff helps each family create an individual plan focusing on the areas of responsible renting, parenting, finance, budgeting and developing other skills needed to help ensure their eventual success in the community. 83% of residents eventually move into safe, affordable housing. Once they move, Dakota Woodlands follows up with each family for up to two years with assistance to ensure they continue to do well in the community.
