A.W. Brooks Serenity Home, Inc.


A.W. Brooks Serenity Home, Inc. is a nonprofit organization based in Birmingham, Alabama,
committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and trauma-informed residential home for teenage girls ages
14–18 who have experienced abuse, neglect, foster care placement, or housing instability.
​
Teenage girls are one of the most underserved groups within the child welfare system. Many are often
moved from place to place during some of the most important years of their lives, leaving them without
the stability and support they need to heal and thrive. A.W. Brooks Serenity Home was created to
change that reality by providing a place where girls can experience safety, consistency, and
encouragement.
​
Our approach is centered on the SHE Model — Strong, Healing, Empowered. Through this
framework, we focus on emotional healing, personal development, educational support, and life skills
that prepare young women for independence and success. We believe that when girls are given the
right environment and guidance, they can overcome trauma and build meaningful futures.
​
The organization is named in honor of Pastor Arthur W. Brooks, whose legacy of faith, compassion,
and community service continues to inspire the mission of Serenity Home. His vision of uplifting and
protecting young people lives on through the work of this organization.
​
A.W. Brooks Serenity Home is currently in the development phase, working toward building a
purpose-driven home designed specifically for teenage girls who need stability, healing, and hope.​
