Our Mission
We empower women through housing, advocacy, leadership, entrepreneurship, mentorship, and opportunities for personal growth.
By offering prosocial activities and leadership opportunities, we foster confidence, community, and independence—helping each woman create a strong foundation for a successful future.
Leadership Academy
Our Leadership Academy provides participants with skill-building workshops, personal development training, and hands-on community engagement. Upon completion, graduates receive a Certificate of Completion and may be eligible for letters of achievement for court, helping demonstrate progress and accountability in their reentry journey
Partnerships & Community Engagement
We are proud to partner with HandsOn Central California in Fresno. Through this partnership, individuals who are court-mandated to complete community service can fulfill their hours by contributing to The Linden Home’s programs and initiatives.
This not only supports our mission but also provides a meaningful way for community members to give back while gaining valuable skills and connections
Our Vision
We take an integrated approach to transforming the lives of marginalized individuals facing systemic barriers. Our programs enrich the mind, body, and spirit, helping each woman ignite her personal purpose and life passions.
This vision is rooted in the lived experience of our founder, Cia Mislang, who overcame the challenges of being system-impacted and formerly incarcerated. Through fiscal discipline, determination, and community support, she transitioned into a thriving life and now leads by example, demonstrating love, acceptance, and the power of change.
The Linden Home is her legacy of hope and transformation
