This year we celebrate the Golden
Anniversary of Shalom House. We
opened our doors in 1972 with the first
of its kind halfway house in the state of
Maine for adults living with severe mental
illness. Li le did our founders know they
were crea ng a model that would be the
archetype for the range of suppor ve
residences we operate today.
We honored this occasion with the opening
of Mellen Street, our latest residen al
treatment program. It is one of our largest
group homes to date with 12 beds, 6
supported apartments and a carriage house
with 4 independent apartments.
Our mission s ll stands strong today as we
offer providing an array of mental health

people lead stable and fulfilling lives in the
