Why Rules Matter
Divine Connection Housing is more than a place to sleep — it is a structured, supportive community. Our house rules are not punishments; they are the foundation that makes this home safe for every woman and child who lives here. When you agree to these rules, you are agreeing to protect yourself and your neighbors.
