Servant
House is a 2-year transitional housing program located
in the Glenwood neighborhood. Servant House offers
shelter, respite, medical care and case management to
21 homeless, disabled men. These men do not need
the acute care of a hospital or assisted living facility,
but need to be off the streets and receive consistent
health care and rehabilitation to break the cycle of
homelessness. Five of the beds at Servant House are
dedicated to the Comfort Care Program.
We
provide our residents with a safe place to live, the
tools to help them rebuild their lives, and the resources
to transition back into society.
Thanks
to your support, over the past decade we have helped
well over 300 needy families. However, homelessness
is on the rise in North Carolina, so we expect to serve
twice that number over the next decade.
