Emma House is a non-profit in Calgary that provides programmed housing to pregnant women and youth who are experiencing homelessness. In 2018 alone, there were close to 3000 Calgarians experiencing homelessness. Emma House is proud to be 1 of 3 organizations in Calgary that work primarily with homeless pregnant women and youth.

At Emma House, we provide our residents with a safe family-like environment, 24/7 trauma-informed care, life skills training, nutritional food, all basic necessities for our moms and babies, as well as comprehensive wrap around services. Over the years, Emma House has helped over 170 women and their babies move out of vulnerability and into healthy and sustainable lives in community.

To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics; to appreciate beauty; to give of one’s self, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived–that is to have succeeded.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
