About Friendly House:
This non-profit organization was founded in 1951 as one of the nation’s first residential homes for women who happen to be recovering from alcohol or substance abuse. Women are given full time supervision along with personalized care and support, with resources 
to begin a productive and meaningful life. With such a strong dedication to help women who want to make a commitment to recovery, no woman in crisis is turned away due to the inability to pay the residence fees. Friendly House holds a high recovery rate at 72%.
