O'Brien House is a Halfway house for homeless persons with alcohol and
substance abuse problems. The facility provides transitional housing for up to
six months to homeless men and women. Supportive Housing Program funds assisted
with the complete renovations of a donated building to provide expanded capacity
from 36 to 62 beds for persons with alcohol and substance abuse problems. SHP
funds provide assistance with basic operations costs. Services include alcohol
and substance abuse counseling and life skills training. Grant funds awarded
under the 1996 SHP have been expended. The project received three year renewal
funding under the 2001 SHP for the continued delivery of services.
