Broken Healer Home

Broken Healer Ministry (BHM) has long been committed to healing,
restoration, and community support for vulnerable populations. Through
education, mentorship, and outreach, BHM walks alongside people facing
emotional, spiritual, and practical transitions. Now, the ministry is
expanding its impact by launching Broken Healer Home (BHH) — a
structured transitional housing and life-skills program for young adults ages
18–25 aging out of foster care.

In Tennessee, more than 800 young people age out of foster care each
year, often without stable housing, supportive adult relationships, or
coordinated mental health services — factors that increase the risk of
homelessness, unemployment, and instability. These outcomes highlight a
critical gap in the system: support often ends when youth turn 18, yet
studies show that targeted support during this period dramatically improves
long-term stability.

Broken Healer Home is designed to bridge that gap by integrating safe,
low-cost transitional housing with mentorship, trauma-informed life-skills
development, and mental health coordination. Beyond providing shelter, the
program helps participants build financial competency, access education
and employment resources, and cultivate stable adult relationships — all
essential elements for successful adult independence.

The vision is to launch BHH in Chattanooga, with the intention of creating a
scalable model that can be replicated across Tennessee. By partnering
with local organizations, workforce programs, housing providers, and
mental health professionals, BHM aims to establish a replicable standard of
care that supports young people as they transition from dependency to
self-sufficiency.

Broken Healer Home represents a shift from reactive support to proactive
empowerment — a model grounded in real needs, measurable outcomes,
and community collaboration. With the right resources and partnerships,
BHH will not only reduce the risk of homelessness and instability, but also
help young adults build resilient, purposeful lives.
