Our Mothers Care outpatient program offers the same unique services as our Stepping Stone Program.

Mothers Care outpatient is an incentive-based program to help mothers alleviate barriers and meet treatment goals by earning “Care Cash” for the Care Closet. The Care Closet is stocked with: diapers, diaper wipes, bottles, blankets, toys, baby clothes, toiletries, and household items.
