Safe Housing and Transitional Living Programs

The Linden Cherish Place (TLC) is a home for pregnant and parenting women. This transitional living program in Waukesha, is a home for young mothers and their children who find themselves homeless or currently living in unfit or unsafe living conditions.

TLC is available for women who are between the ages of 18 and 21. Residents of TLC are expected to attend school or job training while benefiting from the continuous support, mentoring and guidance of a trained case manager. Residents are responsible for a portion of their rent and utility costs thus allowing them to put their budgeting skills to work.

Upon completion of the program, residents have the option to move into a transitional living apartment for an additional 2 years. This program offers much of the same support as the home except residents have their own apartment. Independent living allows for our young families to take the life skills learned in our communal transitional living program and put them to daily use while still receiving case management.

Thanks to the very generous support of the Waukesha Housing Authority, these safe housing programs are available for our clients.
