Our mission statement & core values.
Room At The Inn of the Carolinas, Inc. is an unique, comprehensive program helping homeless, single, pregnant women (with or without previous children), not only during their pregnancies but also after the birth of their babies. By providing shelter, food, clothing, case management, in-house daycare, transportation life skills education and counseling in a structured environment, we help these families have new lives of healthy, hope-filled self sufficiency.
In order to bring these vital programs and services to the Triad, Room At The Inn of the Triad was incorporated in June of 1999.
In May of 2001, the renovations on the original Sternberger Mansion located in the Aycock Historical District were completed and the Mary Corinne Nussbaum Home for single mothers was opened. The only licensed maternity home in Guilford County, the facility is licensed to accommodate six pregnant women and their children.
Since then, the agency has grown and other programs have been added to meet the needs of our clients. These include: The Donald L. Dixon Self Sufficiency Program (2001); Joey’s Room, our (Five Star) licensed Child Development Program (2002); our Maternal, Infant and Child Health Care Program (2004); Amy’s House (2004); and our newest project The Back Yard Ministry Home in Kernersville, North Carolina (2005).
Our outreach expanded in late 2005 to include programs and support for pregnant women in the Lowcountry area of South Carolina. In 2006, Room
At The Inn of the Carolinas was established as the parent organization over Room At The Inn of the Triad and Room At The Inn of the Lowcountry.
With an all-volunteer Board of Directors, Room At The Inn of the Carolinas is a nonprofit corporation with a 501(c)3 status with the IRS. A nondenominational organization, Room At The Inn of the Carolinas is not affiliated with any one church or agency.
Room At The Inn of the Carolinas welcomes all people of faith and goodwill to join us in serving single, pregnant women and single mothers with children regardless of their economic, social, religious, racial or ethnic backgrounds.
We bring hope to families through your support.
