When circumstances in life got really difficult and my daughter and I were homeless we called Texas Baptist Children's Home our home. The staff there treated me better than I've been treated my whole life. I was seen and heard, understood and loved, all my needs were met. I was given the tools that I needed to take better care of myself and my daughter, I left there with confidence and better self esteem too. Thank you TBCH, for everything!

This church family is truly something special! I felt right at home from the first time stepping foot inside. Pastor Alvarez is a great biblical preacher and unwaivering in his faith! If you are ready to be saved or even if your not sure just come and visit with the family and I have no doubt that your life will change for the best! True fulfillment!

This place helps women and children who are displaced to get back on their feet and to eventually be independent again. They are very appreciative of any help you provide. I highly recommend helping them to help others.

If I was able to give no stars on here for this place I would. I heard very good things about it before I even processed the paperwork with TBCH. I never heard anything bad. Honestly, don't believe what people tell you and take their word for it as looks can be deceiving. I moved in here recently with my newborn daughter, and we left just a couple weeks as soon as a lot of crooked things happened. My time there was brief. I moved in during the winterstorm of 2023. Their plans for safety were absolutely unacceptable. Our power shut off on the 1st and I reached out to the family care coordinator whose name was Susan. She kept repeatedly saying that the power was going to turn back on that day.I lived in a cottage with 3 other women and their kids. The two women were going to leave. They told me that Susan just took off with her son in her car and basically didnt care and it showed. This woman kept giving me unclear answers. She went to pick up a pizza for that day and just left the pizza and texted the pizza was on the counter. It was cold and the power was shut off for two hours. She knew that and didn't stay. She didn't even bother to check on the other mom and I. Never mentioned anything about a safety plan. I had to ask and she was still unsure and kept saying the power was gonna turn on. I have a newborn and my child can't sustain those temperatures without heat. She didn't even offer her car so that I can warm mine up. So I can Keep my child warm. It was getting colder that I had to ask the mom that was staying with us to keep us warm. I had to take matters into my own hands ask about a hotel see if they had power. They did. I reached out to the assistant director Julie Robinson, and I was furious she threatened to hang up on me. Their was no accountability for actions especially since my newborn could've gotten seriously I'll or death. People die in those types of weather conditions and I've even seen it for myself. I stayed a little bit after hoping things would get better but they didn't. Susan was rude and had her fingers up in the air saying this is a program and I need to touch base with her. I told her I was aware she said she is flexible I shoot her a day and she says she can't do it. I told her that don't make her flexible. This place is unorganized and they don't save you money. You are better going off to a salvation army or getting section 8 housing. This place is a cult and the people that work there are constantly looking over your shoulder and honestly don't care about your needs or what you have to say. Please do not give them your money. They do not help moms especially who are working and going to school.

I don't know what this place was like before when it ACTUALLY used to be a great place for single moms to get on their feet but from my personal experience and after some investigating, now I share similar stories with other single moms who have not been treated in a Christian way. TBCH presents their program as Christian based, but how much of a Christian organization can they be when they kick single moms out of the program and in my case, with a special needs child, out with less than 30 days notice when they have NOWHERE to go? What part of that has anything to do with being a Christian?I'm not saying they did not help me because they did, HOWEVER, due to recent events of how they treated us towards the end of our stay and finding out that they did similar things other moms, I no longer have any respect for this place. If I could give this non-profit a 0 or a half star I would. TBCH is supposed to be a place for single moms to get back on their feet, and for the most part, it was a blessing when I desperately needed a place to stay. I sang the praises of TBCH for the 2 years me and my son lived there. ALL of that changed in May 2019 when I was caught off guard when I met with one of the administrators for what I thought was going to be my extension meeting. Instead, the lady, and YOU know who you are, told me that I had 23 days to leave. I was given no reason for the abrupt time to move out either. I am a single mom of a special needs child with autism, and TBCH ripped our world out from under us without a care in the world. Stability for an Autistic child is as important as drinking water for our bodies. TBCH knew the whole time I lived there I had only my mom as far as family close by, but other than that, I didn't have anyone for support (I am not referring to financial support.) Being a single mom is hard enough, but being one to a special needs child without support is even harder. They SIMPLY DID NOT care that we had no place to go.After talking with another mom on campus who was in the same situation I was, I found out that she was told she would need to leave as well, but she met with the same administrator I did, and she was given an immediate extension. I attempted to reach out with the same lady but she gave me the run around by responding late to emails before she was leaving on vacation whereas before all of this she'd respond very quickly by email or text. I decided to reach out to the program director and requested a meeting and was granted one. On the day of our meeting, the Campus Administrator also joined us. I explained why I desperately needed an extension, my plan of action to reach my goals so I could move out, etc. (I have proof of this whole conversation) At the conclusion of the meeting, they said they were going to see what they could work out but in the meantime I needed to continue to pack up my apartment because another mom was moving into my apartment. Two days later I ran into the Campus Administrator and she told me they hadn't come up with a solution yet, but I had an additional week to get my things packed and that they had pushed back the moms move in date a week because they wanted to talk to the lady who went on vacation when she got back into the office in a week. She told me we would reconvene after they met with her but it never happened. The director and campus administrator would not return any of my emails inquiring about meeting again. They blatantly lied to my face. I know for a fact there was plenty of space available at other houses on campus from several other people who live there but they had no desire to help me and my son.This organization needs reform. They show nepotism to certain mom's while others don't get help they need. When I was there, and when left, there was a mom that had been living there for 3 years but she wasn't being kicked out, we were. There was also a mom using drugs on campus and leaving her kids unattended in the house when she'd leave. Did she get removed from the program? Nope! It's very uneth

The chapel is small, but beautiful. The activity center is great too. It is for the children 's home and other authorized activities.

I’ve worked with TBCH for a few years now and I highly recommend this organization. The services they provide in the community are indispensable. They are not an orphanage, they are so much more than that. You should check them out.

TBCH is a heartfelt and wonderful organization that supports and helps those in need. They have designated areas where you can donate goods, including unopened and fresh food, that go to those in need. They provide options for people who need and want a home. As I type this, I was also told they even provide no-cost counseling for those residing in Williamson County — which I find to be so amazing for their surrounding community!

I am very Grateful for TBCH, not only do they make us feel like family but they have helped guide me through the thick and thin of challenges in my life. Everywhere there are encouraging and positive staff that never skip a beat on making sure I am on top of my stuff. We are a family that was part of receiving in the Toy Run. Toy Runnerz and different events that go on are heart-warming and fun. My children are grateful for the support. One of there favorite places is the Rec Center on Campus.
