This holiday season, Apriem Advisors reached out and made a difference in the community.

Thanks to the wonderful nonprofit, Casa Teresa, we were able to deliver a basket of goodies to a mom, child and baby to help make their Christmas a little easier. Upon receiving the food, the mom was overwhelmed and we could not be more honored to provide this service.

Now in its 40th year, Casa Teresa provides much-needed adoption and emergency shelter services to expecting mothers in need. Casa Teresa also provides a loving and supportive family home to pregnant women and their babies facing difficult circumstances, giving them hope and a future. With a trusted and compassionate team of professionals and a proven residential program, they empower mothers in learning lifelong skills to end cycles of homelessness, abuse, and addiction and help them regain control of their futures and create families that thrive.

To date, Casa Teresa has served more than 6,000 women, children and babies in nearly 40 years of service, currently accommodating up to 54 women and babies at full capacity. Led by a 19-member Board of Directors, we have 29 dedicated full-time and part-time staff members, as well as 375 volunteers giving more than 8,500 hours of service teaching classes, babysitting, providing professional support and guidance, tutoring, and landscaping. Together, this team is eager to continue expanding and deepening services that empower mothers to reclaim their lives and nurture healthy families.
