Sojourner House

Our Mission: Offering compassionate, faith-based recovery services to mothers and their children.

Recovery Changes Everything.

Recovery changes everything—for a mother finding hope after addiction. For a child experiencing safety and stability. For a family rebuilding trust. For a community made stronger when healing is possible.

Now more than ever, recovery needs a community behind it.

At Sojourner House and Sojourner House MOMS, we believe every mother deserves the opportunity to heal without sacrificing her role as a parent. Through residential treatment, supportive housing, compassionate care, and family-centered services, we help mothers and their children recover together—creating the foundation for healthier families and brighter futures.

Every day, we witness what happens when recovery is possible. Mothers regain custody of their children, secure safe housing, find meaningful employment, pursue education, and build lives defined not by addiction, but by hope, resilience, and purpose. Children experience the safety, consistency, and love they need to thrive. Recovery doesn't just change one life—it changes generations.

For more than three decades, Sojourner House has walked alongside families facing substance use disorder, mental health challenges, and housing instability. By addressing the root causes of addiction while surrounding families with compassionate, trauma-informed support, we help create lasting change that extends far beyond our walls.

On Critical Needs Giving Day, August 4, your generosity helps make these life-changing moments possible. Every gift provides mothers and children with access to treatment, safe housing, and the wraparound support they need to heal together.

Because when a mother recovers, a family is restored.

Recovery changes everything.

Testimonials

Vanessa spent time with her son at both Sojourner House and Sojourner House MOMS putting in the work to overcome her substance use disorder and find the path she wanted for herself and her son. The programs gave her an amazing foundation and the confidence to go after what she wanted for her life.

"I was at Sojourner House for 5-6 months and then MOMS for 5 years. Now, I own my own home," she said. "If you stay with it, you really can do it."

Vanessa credits her time at Sojourner House and Sojourner House MOMS for everything she has today. "I met some amazing women here," she said. "This place gave me a sense of peace that helped me prepare for whenever I got out of here."
