Samaritan House is a small non-profit in Simcoe County dedicated to supporting women and families as they rebuild their lives. The organization provides transitional housing for up to 18 months, giving women the time and stability they need to heal from abuse and regain their independence. Each woman is supported through one-on-one programming tailored to her unique situation, meeting her where she is and helping her set and achieve personal goals. This individualized approach ensures that by the time she leaves Samaritan House, she feels safe, confident, and fully prepared for long-term success. In addition to housing, Samaritan House also operates a community donation and resource center, offering food, clothing, and other essentials to those in need. Together, these services create a supportive environment where women can break free from the cycle of abuse and move forward with hope.
