Located at the Purdue Center of Hope, Renewal Place is the only transitional program in Memphis that allows children to stay with their mother while she undergoes treatment for chemical addiction. This non-traditional approach seeks to preserve the family unit while the entire family recovers from the affects of substance abuse. Case management services track the families for one year post-graduation to help ensure service plans are being followed.

Renewal Place goals are to:

• Provide intensive case management for mothers and their children
• Provide access to alcohol and drug treatment, childcare and children's services, and healthcare
• Make available the opportunity to obtain and maintain affordable housing
• Make available job and life-skills training and educational pursuits to increase education, skills and/or income
• Help mothers achieve greater self-determination through continued sobriety, better parenting skills, anger management skills and financial literacy.

Renewal Place has a nightly capacity of 45 women and children.
