For pregnant and parenting college students, continuing their education can feel nearly impossible without a strong support system. Tala sits down with Ella’s House founder Elise Jenkins, who shares how her own experience of discovering she was pregnant as she entered college inspired her to create the organization. We also hear from a mother who recently graduated from one of Ella’s House’s programs and learn how that support helped transform her journey. From safe housing and nutritious food to education, mentorship and long-term stability, Ella’s House of Nashville provides resources designed to protect the well-being and future of both mother and baby. We also explore the many ways the community can get involved and help these women build healthy, independent lives for themselves and their children.
