Elizabeth and Jack Weathersby spent two days making this bedroom into beautiful oasis for Mosaic clients.
Throughout the transition to our new shelter, the community has show tremendous support for survivors of human rights abuses in North Texas, and the media has taken notice.

They probably won’t ever meet the women and children who will live in them. Instead, the rooms will be home to residents of Mosaic House, the shelter run by Mosaic Family Services for survivors of human trafficking and domestic violence.
