Poverty, unemployment and increasingly high rates of homelessness weigh heavily upon some of the most vulnerable members of society. In order to overcome these obstacles and to ensure that our homeless families permanently escape their poverty, Casa Nueva Vida, Inc. has developed the following programs:

• Computer/ Job Training Program: The goal of this program is to provide homeless mothers with basic/advance computer skills in order to obtain employment in a related area and become independent of public assistance.
   

• Technical Elective Courses - (TEC): will be included in our Educational Program Curriculum to provide an opportunity for “Selected” residents to prepare for State Examinations and Microsoft Certifications for Technical Careers. All TEC courses will be aligned with Microsoft examinations (or preparation for examination) and approved by the Instructor and the President and CEO of Casa Nueva Vida, Inc.
   

• English (ESOL) Program: The English as a Second Language Program is offered to all residents that have the need to improve their reading, written and speaking skills.
   

• Personal Empowerment Program: The program provides an opportunity for women to discuss and better cope with the problems of domestic violence and low self-esteem, while offering practical knowledge about health, nutrition and parenting that can be of great benefit to homeless and non-homeless mothers alike.
   

• Children’s / Teen’s Education Program: The Children’s Education Program is of great value in helping our residents and their children to overcome obstacles to learning, to reach a high standard of educational success, and to continue that success upon leaving the shelter.

Other services are given along with programs such as:
- Professional Counseling and Family Life Advocate
- Housing Advocate and Housing Support
