Florence Crittenton is a nationally recognized Montana non-profit specializing in therapeutic residential services for pregnant and parenting young women, ages 12 to 21.  Many of the girls we serve have experienced multiple personal challenges including substance abuse, depression, truancy, and runaway tendencies.  Our treatment model is a relationship based cognitive/behavioral approach with a particular emphasis on attachment and bonding issues, enabling healing to occur and creating healthy relationships.

We believe that the birth of a baby offers a unique opportunity for change and growth in the life of a teen mother and her extended family.

Volunteers Needed
If you have an hour or two per week to give, you can change two lives forever.  The young women who live at Florence Crittenton Home need mentors, role models, tutors, parenting guides and life-skills coaches to help them to make successful transitions into independent motherhood.  Can you offer your skills and experiences to help them?  Also, the children that live at Florence Crittenton Home often need baby-sitters and day-care providers.  If you can love and nurture a baby and/or his young mother, please volunteer at Florence Crittenton Home.  For more information call Cheri Long, our Volunteer Coordinator, at 442-6950 ext. 222.
