About Us In My Shoes is the only community living program in Dallas that provides support specifically geared towards pregnant homeless women - while offering life, parenting, and job skills. This program was created by those who have walked a mile in the shoes of the less fortunate. Our staff simply wants to give back to the community while explicitly supporting life and families in need – mothers, fathers, and babies. In My Shoes accomplishes this through offering our guests the opportunity to learn valuable life skills such as cooking, cleaning, and caring for oneself, while also ensuring that every expectant or new mother has the necessary parenting skills and resources available to care for her child. What We Provide In My Shoes provides for the immediate physical and emotional needs of expectant mothers including shelter, food, clothing, and a supportive community. In addition, In My Shoes will offer various resources to directly support the development of the mothers.
