We opened our doors on March 2, 2020. We’ve not only survived a rather disorienting first year, but have thrived and developed a comprehensive approach to healing and economic freedom for the women who find their way home.
Our eight bedroom house is open to women survivors of trauma and addiction who have no place to call home and are willing to do the hard work of pursuing healing.

Our program requires a one year commitment but our sisters can stay up to 2 years while they continue to heal and build a foundation for self-sufficiency upon graduation. We offer our graduates a dollar-for-dollar matched savings program up to $1000 which can be applied to housing, education or the purchase of a vehicle.
In addition to housing and basic supplies, SOS House also provides a full time care coordinator who will understand our residents’ stories along their strengths and barriers. Our coordinator will then develop a plan for each woman to access community services to address and overcome life challenges.
Only our community partners and approved volunteers will be allowed to visit.
