Heather Potts, the executive director at Bella House, “a safe haven for mothers experiencing unplanned pregnancies,” told the Daily Caller that the organization works hard to provide everything they need to be successful long after the baby arrives. Bella House operates in quiet neighborhoods in North Texas. There are currently 11 women and their babies living in the residence programs, which provide a safe place for homeless pregnant mothers aged 18 and older to live until their baby is one year old and the support they need to achieve their goals for independence and stability.

Potts said that each mother is required to be drug- and alcohol-free and participate in six months of classes that empower each woman to make positive changes in her life to become self-sufficient, emotionally strong, and a good mother to her child. While Bella House provides shelter, food, clothing, and emotional support for the mother and her baby, these women have to take it upon themselves to improve in order for the program to be successful.
