We believe every SOUL is made in the Image of God
and worthy of love.
Why SOUL offers Peer Support & Long-Term Mentoring
SOUL is here for pregnant women and new moms who need
support to empower their futures despite surprises.
No woman should walk through pregnancy or parenting alone.
She is supporting another life; We will do what we can to support her life.
Healthy Relationships
Half of all homeless women report that domestic violence was the immediate cause of their homelessness.
In South Carolina, 1 in 4 kids from the foster care system become homeless and/or pregnant by age 19, the fourth highest rate in the nation. 1 in 5 former foster children cannot name a caring adult they feel connected to.
Budgeting & Career Skills
1 in 5 women seeking abortion describe feeling unprepared to raise a child, or felt that a baby would interfere with their future goals and opportunities.
Self-Care through Pregnancy and Parenting
Women who feel overwhelmed may not have the capacity to seek proper prenatal care, which puts themselves and their children at risk.
High stress during pregnancy, increased from lack of support, can affect the child's
development and increase health risks of both mother and child.
Study after study of a wide variety of issues show:
