About us
Friends of Guest House (www.friendsofguesthouse.org) is a transitional program that supports women who are returning to the community after incarceration for non-violent offenses. Friends of Guest House provides a safe, caring, healing environment for women in recovery from trauma, addictions, challenged family systems, and mood disorders. We serve 30 women in our Residential Program at a time, and each woman is invited to participate in the program for 6 months and spend another 6-9 months in our Aftercare Program with stepped-down case management support. The goal of the women in the program is to re-enter the community, reunite with their families, and address barriers to achieving their goals. Overall, women who re-enter the community without support have a recidivism rate of 70%. Women who complete the Residential to Aftercare Program continuum at Friends of Guest House have a recidivism rate of 15%. Come join a dedicated team and make a difference in a woman’s life each and every hour.
