A Safe Home

Sunlight of Collier County was founded over 30 years ago to help struggling pregnant women and teens.

We offer support, love, and resources to pregnant women suffering from difficult circumstances and struggling single mothers.

Sunlight of Collier County was founded over 30 years ago to provide pregnant women a means of having their babies outside the ridicule and judgment of society.  While the practical application of our work has evolved to meet the current societal climate, our goal is still the same.  At Sunlight of Collier County, we strive to provide pregnant women and struggling single mothers with support, love, and a sense of self-worth.  How we offer that support and love varies depending on the needs of the mother/mother-to-be, which is why we operate four (4) different programs. 

“We are breaking the generational cycles of dysfunction to give residents and their children a life of confidence and independence, which, in turn, relieves a burden otherwise placed on society.”
