Emily’s Place provides long-term transformational care to women and their children in a shared living environment for up to 24 months. Residents are required to abide by house rules to be respectful of the safety and privacy of the other residents. A commitment and active engagement by the women to participate in their development is essential to their progress. All women receive one-on- one counseling and case management sessions focusing on their individual needs.

The 11 categories for development are:
· Addiction – must be drug free
· Spiritual
· Legal
