Since 1972, Shalom House has been a leader in providing residen al treatment, supported housing op ons and mental health services for people living with severe mental illness. We assist hundreds of people each year by helping them break through the barriers that make it difficult to recover from their illness. For some, these barriers include the inability to afford a safe and clean place to live, for others it's understanding how to navigate the complexi es of the mental health system, and for others it's being lost and discouraged by our fast-paced, over-s mula ng society. Our goal is to help people find ways to manage their illness and lead fulfilling lives in our communi es. HOUSING SERVICES We provide a choice of affordable, safe housing ranging from group living and supported housing to independent apartments. Shalom House also administers housing subsidy programs to individuals who qualify. MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES We offer community-based services to help our clients gain the skills and confidence they need to achieve their own goals and to successfully reintegrate into the community. THE SHALOM ART PROGRAM Opening doors to self-expression through the crea ve process. Our studio provides a safe, suppor ve environment where ar sts can freely explore and express ideas, learn new skills and discover their strengths and abili es.
