What We Provide

Everything a youth
needs to move forward.

Each resident receives an individualized plan — housing, health, education, and family coordination all under one roof.

Safe, Stable Housing

A real home in a real neighborhood — not a facility. Residents live in a structured, supervised environment with consistent routines and boundaries.

Life Skills Development

Cooking, budgeting, communication, personal responsibility. Skills that stay with them long after they leave.

Educational Continuity

We coordinate with local schools to keep residents enrolled, on track, and supported in their education.

Behavioral Health Support

Residents have access to counseling and therapeutic support, coordinated with licensed providers in Gaston County.

Family Engagement

Where reunification is the goal, we actively support it. We keep families informed, involved, and prepared for what comes next.

Individualized Service Plans

Every resident enters with a plan built around their specific history, goals, and needs — reviewed regularly with the team and placing agency.

Licensed Staff Secure Care

Ms. Dorothy's House holds a North Carolina DHHS Staff Secure residential treatment license (MHL-036-410) — a higher level of supervised care than standard group homes.

Recreation & Community

Structured activities, outings, and community involvement — because growth happens outside the house too.
