Rose of Lima House

Rose of Lima House opened in January 1993 in response to an alarming increase in the number of single women facing homelessness with little support and no affordable housing. We provide housing and intensive, individualized support services to 13 women at a time, for up to two years.

Our mission at Rose of Lima House is to assist our community's most vulnerable women in transforming their lives through self-sufficiency and healthy change, with tailored supportive services and community-based transitional housing. By providing a safe and nurturing place for women to heal, Rose House affords women the opportunity to regain dignity, restore relationships, and transition from homelessness to safe, stable and permanent housing.

Rose House prioritizes serving women who have been chronically homeless and struggling with physical or mental disabilities, addiction, trauma histories or other devastating issues.

Since we opened, over 190 women have been served, 78% of whom have gone on to secure and maintain permanent housing. Residents are offered supportive, community-based living, with a focused effort to address issues leading to homelessness. Our services include therapeutic case management, mental health counseling, resource referrals, community meals and activities, and a Life Skills program featuring workshops, guest speakers, outings and service projects.

Rose House is part of a Continuum of Care that includes emergency shelter and survival services (Noel House Programs) and permanent affordable housing with support services (Dorothy Day House).
