Our Story
Self Care Homes NC was founded with a deep understanding of the unique challenges women face in early recovery. Recognizing a need for a specialized, women-only space in North Carolina, we opened our doors to provide an environment free from judgment and full of hope.
Our team is dedicated to maintaining a high standard of living, ensuring that our home is beautifully maintained, peaceful, and conducive to healing. We work closely with each resident to help them establish healthy routines, find employment or volunteer opportunities, and stay connected with their recovery programs.
Meet the Founder
Dr. Linda Brown, PhD, AGNP, MSN, RN
I am Dr. Linda Brown, PhD, AGNP, MSN, RN, who successfully defended my dissertation on black women and mental health. I have over 40 years of experience serving people in need of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual support. My wide-range of roles included administrator, supervisor, educator, patient advocate, interdisciplinary team collaborator, etc. We all have faced levels of tragedy in life; some survive, but others continue in a vicious cycle of despair. I am here to educate and help clients maneuver through this journey.
As founder of Self Care Homes NC, I am dedicated to providing a safe, drug-free, alcohol-free environment for healing and personal growth. My goal is to assist women holistically while they work toward independent living. Along with community partners, Self Care Homes NC will provide evidence-based resources to support women on their journey to freedom and wholeness.
Self Care Homes NC is not an emergency shelter or drop-in housing program. There is an interview process in place to ensure a good fit between Self Care Homes NC and the client. Clients participate in a structured community environment that includes:
- Program participation
- Shared living
- Accountability
- Personal goal development
- Community support
I look forward to working with clients to rebuild lives for a stronger community.
