VisionMOMMAS HOUSE is dedicated to ensuring that any pregnant young woman on Long Island can have a realistic opportunity to parent her child even in the most difficult of circumstances. MOMMAS can make a difference for teenage mothers abandoned by their families, having no place to take their babies other than a seedy rooming house and no prospects other than being chained to welfare. Young mothers, whose choice of life for their child is at odds with a society which too often promotes death, now have a place to take their baby home.
