“I understood the plight of single mothers having been the child of a single mother.”

-Phyllis Alderman, Founder

The Shepherd’s Village family knows the challenges of raising children as a solo parent. We’ve been there. And we’re here for you.

 

“When a mom comes, she’s scared and in a crisis.”

Director of Operations & Client Services

We stand in the gap for single moms and their children. While we are the only single mother residential program in Pinellas County, Florida. We have expanded our free, online offerings so more women across the country can experience healing, safety, and restoration.

Helping Two Generations at One Time

Many women come here feeling scared, alone, and broken. And what they find at Shepherd’s Village is hope, confidence, beauty, and support--from each other, from the staff, and from the Lord. With the help of our partners, we are able to reach two generations at one time and make an impact that will long outlive us.

“The resources and support that Shepherd’s Village gave my mom were huge. She grew spiritually, which helped her relay that to us and that made a huge impact on my life. Without that, I wouldn’t have been able to grow into the person I am today.”

— Chris

 

Our Numbers Speak for Themselves

 
 

I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. ...indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:38-39

 

Ways to Get Involved

There is hope beyond the brokenness and confusion caused by divorce, separation, death, or never having been married. We have many safe, free offerings for single moms.
