House directors and staff care for residents, and each woman is invited to stay for up to one year after birth. The average stay at Mercy House can be six months to one year in most circumstances. Our goal for each resident is graduation from our program with a healthy baby, personnl healing, restoration, feeling equipped to parent, or empowered and supported to place their baby for adoption. During their stay with us, we prioritize emotional healing from trauma, learning life skills, parenting education, and acquistion of a higher level of education than previously achieved. This ranges from working for a general equivalency diploma, acquiring education for a technical trade or online attendance of college classes. We focus heavily on emotional and spiritual restoration and resolution. These goals are achieved through the teamwork of the staff, various volunteers and professional skilled workers who offer their services. Seven women were served on a long-term basis this year in our residential home. These services include midwifery and medical obstetrics care, childbirth education and dental and chiropractic care. We also provide professional services and classes to include Celebrate Recovery, private counseling, nutritional training, emotional and spiritual healing and recovery and our parent education course, Brightcourse. We assisted each resident in obtainig WIC, Medicaid, and exploring educational advancement. In some cases, Mercy House funded their educational requirements through grant funds or personal scholarships. Additionally, we provided 56 women with prayers and informational resources that moms and moms-to-be find useful. 189896 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 7 0 true 10 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 4 4 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false true true true false X X X KLA Tax and Business Services LLC 4694653428 113 N Poydras Ste 207 Lewisville TX 75057 Lisa Barnes Director 40.00 X 57430 0 0 Yvonne Schnitzius President 8.00 X X 0 0 0 Marcy Barkemeyer Secretary 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Shanika Robinson Vice President 3.00 X 0 0 0 Dave Lewis Treaurer 4.00 X 0 0 0 57430 0 0 false false false 49396 300147 349543 16 0 16 279 0 279 0 0 49396 20551 -20551 -20551 0 329287 0 -20272 16 57430 17229 28715 11486 104390 59246 6772 38372 6500 6500 0 0 23816 11740 5021 7055 6000 3000 3000 0 2325 0 2325 0 6000 0 6000 0 834 0 834 0 16415 0 0 16415 12018 0 12018 0 70925 70925 0 0 1712 0 1712 0 4647 4647 0 0 2147 0 2147 0 Client Expenses 16609 16609 0 0 Merchant Fees 6704 0 6704 0 Business Meals 1732 0 1732 0 Donor Management 2732 0 2732 0 1220 0 1065 155 344156 189896 80777 73483 15012 3574 86849 62480 0 299 11636 17158 604171 13940 594878 590231 708375 673742 8533 5271 356179 339677 364712 344948 X 343663 328794 343663 328794 708375 673742 -14869 X false false false X 0 312703 342446 365445 357144 349543 1727281 0 0 312703 342446 365445 357144 349543 1727281 0 1727281 244 330 299 113 279 1265 0 0 1728546 0.99930 0.90560 X 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 580937 0 580937 23234 13940 9294 590231 Pt VI, Line 11b The content of the Form 990 is reviewed and verified with the Executive Director before finalization.
