women and infants special help centre - Transitional Homes

UCT believes that it is the right of everyone to have a decent home, providing safe, clean housing for their families. We believe that the home is a key catalyst to break the cycle of poverty. With this in mind we are looking to establish a Pilot Project at Fortesque building 10 ‘Transitional Modular Homes,’ behind the Great House.


This Humanitarian project is based on the conviction that to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ, we must love and care for one another. Our love must not be words only— it must be true love, which shows itself in action, faith without works is dead. UCT wants to provide an opportunity for people to put their faith and love into action. We are looking to bring diverse groups of people together to make affordable housing and better communities a reality for the abused women of Barbados.

Habitat’s late founder, Millard Fuller, was quoted as saying "We may disagree on all sorts of other things,” said Fuller, “but we can agree on the idea of building homes with God's people in need, and in doing so using biblical economics: no profit and no interest. The Bible teaches that God is the God of the whole crowd," explained Fuller. "God's love leaves nobody out, and my love should not either. This understanding drives 'the theology of the hammer' around the world, steadily building more and more houses in more and more countries."

 
 

 

PHASE 2

After the women have been through Phase 1 which is our healing and counseling program they are then ready to enter Phase 2 which is the ‘Transitional Home Complex’. These homes will be built on the land behind The Great House.

These basic 400 sq ft two bedroom, one bathroom properties will be the ideal Transitional Home for the residents of the Women’s Inner Healing Center.


We are researching various building companies and we believe we can build them for US $10,000 excluding land, water catchments, solar lighting and interior plumbing fittings and fixtures.

UCT looks to build a more cost effective, stronger, safer, more durable & energy efficient home structure that is also environmentally friendly & erected in less time than other construction systems.

Our homes are made of renewable materials that are 100% recyclable. The UN has approved this material for green building projects. They are hurricane and earthquake resistant and can withstand 200 mile per hour winds for hurricane prone areas.
