WHAT WE DO

We offer transitional housing to residents in recovery in Raleigh. For more than two decades, we’ve believed that the foundation of recovery begins with self. Long-term success requires a safe place and supportive community to bridge the gap between addiction and independent living. We stand in that gap because we want all people to have access to a safe place to recover and a chance to live independently again.

TESTIMONIES

Emmaus provides me with affordable, comfortable living as I prepare for independent living. Emmaus House has allowed me to connect with more men in recovery, while reconnecting with my community as well. Without Emmaus House’s support, there is no doubt in my mind that my transition into a sober and happy life would have been met with obstacles that I may not have been able to overcome. The treatment center helped save my life, but Emmaus is helping me make that life enjoyable and livable.

Emmaus House has given me a safe and secure place to build my confidence in my recovery. Emmaus House has also given me the opportunity to have a smooth transition into independent living.

—MIKE "SQUIRREL"

Addiction has a tendency to reduce human beings to the lowest common denominator, a person in pain and needing help. When suffering, attention is welcome from anywhere and anyone. Communication, consideration, dignity and respect are essential elements for recovery…I found all of these at Emmaus House. I will forever be grateful.

Emmaus House has given me the opportunity to grow financially, emotionally and spiritually. It has helped by putting me on a path to recovery that I didn’t have before. I am grateful for the opportunity to live among other men who are trying to accomplish the same goals and the ability to experience accountability and brotherly love like I never have before.

—JASON H

By giving me a supportive environment to rebuild my life, Emmaus House has helped me avoid pitfalls other addicts face when trying to remain sober. By lending me a hand and providing safe and affordable housing in my early recovery, Emmaus has put me on the right footing to a stable and productive future. Emmaus House has been a blessing to me.

—D.B.

Emmaus House has been essential in rebuilding my life. Living in an environment that supported my recovery was mandatory. I was able to establish a rental history and a history for basic housing services (electric/cable) by living in the Emmaus Apartments. The opportunity to get a car through Wheels for Hope, a partner agency, enabled me to gain steady employment. I am forever grateful for all that Emmaus and Joe has done for me.

—RUSTY

Emmaus has helped me to become a part of the recovery community. Affordable housing and the fellowship have played a large part in my recovery. Structure, integrity and self-sufficiency are assets that I will carry with me long after leaving Emmaus House.
