About Us
Friendly House was founded in 1951 and was the first residential program for women recovering from substance and alcohol abuse. The organization is solely supported by private donations and grants, by the fundraising efforts of the Board of Directors, Grateful Hearts (former residents of Friendly House), and special events such as our Annual Awards Luncheon and other events.
It is our mission to continue to provide an environment in which women can recover from the devastation of drug and alcohol addiction and progress toward healthy families and communities.
Our Mission Statement
A community-based non-profit organization
The mission of Friendly House is to provide women seeking recovery from alcohol and other substance use disorders with a safe, structured and supportive home-like environment that fosters recovery, personal growth and civic responsibility. Our goal is to help each and every client reclaim her dignity and acquire the knowledge, skills, support and resources she will need to maintain a drug-free, purposeful and productive life. As a community-based non-profit organization, our commitment is to extend a helping hand to every qualified applicant who sincerely desires recovery.
