The Magdalen House
Our New Home: 4513 Gaston Ave.
The Need
OUR CURRENT SPACE
We have a frequent waitlist for our Social Detox Program, with an increased number in first-time admissions, and in 2019 58% of clients had never sought help for their alcoholism.
Our Peer Recovery Program continues to grow through increased meeting and fellowship event attendance, up by 13.5% in 2019, and the addition of The Next Step, a non-residential program.
Our current location, a 1952 former duplex, has experienced 22 years of wear and tear and has become too small and worn for the growing number of alcoholic women seeking help through our no-cost recovery services.
The Future
THE NEW SPACE
Expanding from 14 to 20 beds, we will be able to help 40% more alcoholic women through our Social Detox Program while still keeping an intimate atmosphere.
With a Community Room double the size of our current space, we will be able to hold twice as many women and families for daily meetings and monthly fellowship events.
Commercial-grade construction makes the house withstand years of use, while the residential design makes it feel like a home.
Public transportation access directly in front of the house and proximity to local partners and resources allows us to be more connected to our community.
