Redemption House is a non-profit organization in Horry County, providing women who have been incarcerated an environment for change and growth upon their release. The women living in Redemption House desire changed lives, as evidenced by their participation in regular discipleship while still detained. Spiritual support and Biblical counseling is at the core of each participant’s time spent at Redemption House. They will be offered the support and resources needed to begin their new lives with meaning and purpose as they rejoin our community.

Our Executive Board consists of five people devoted to helping these women. Educators, administrators, and chaplains, we are dedicated to serve as positive role models. Our Auxiliary Board consists of pastors and friends who have committed to prayerfully support the work of Redemption House.

Our greatest concern is for the future of these women once they are released from jail or prison.  Currently, a woman leaves with only the clothes and possessions she came in with; often homeless, unemployed, and without financial resources.  Many of these women have come out of abusive situations and some have never learned basic life skills. With few options, they often resort to previous poor lifestyle decisions, frequently ending up back in jail.
We want to provide a home for newly released women prisoners, ending this cycle of futility. Redemption House will be a place where they can grow in their Christian faith, learn advanced life skills, and be prepared for independent living and employment.
