BUTTERFLY FREEDOM HOUSE

BUTTERFLY FREEDOM HOUSE IS DESIGNED TO HELP WOMEN WHO HAVE BEEN INCARCERATED FIND HOPE AND SUCCESS AS THEY SEEK TO DISCOVER GOD'S PLAN FOR THEIR LIVES. WE TEACH THAT JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE THROUGH REGULAR BIBLE STUDY. IN ADDITION, WE WORK WITH WOMEN TO INTEGRATE THEM BACK INTO THE COMMUNITY AND A LOCAL CONGREGATIONS. WOMEN MUST UNDERGO AN APPLICATION AND INTERVIEW PROCESS TO BE ADMITTED INTO THE BUTTERFLY FREEDOM HOUSE. WE ENCOURAGE RESIDENTS TO PURSUE THEIR FAITH AS THEY REBUILD THEIR LIVES IN AMES AND TRANSITION BACK INTO THE COMMUNITY. EACH WOMAN MUST GET A JOB AND CONTRIBUTE FINANCIALLY TOWARD HER STAY AT BUTTERFLY FREEDOM HOUSE, WHILE RECEIVING DISCIPLESHIP, MENTORING, AND APPLICABLE PROGRAMMING. THE BOARD AND A GROUP OF INCREDIBLE VOLUNTEERS OFFER CONTINUAL SUPPORT TO RESIDENTS THROUGHOUT THEIR STAY IN THE HOUSE.
