Maria House is more than a transitional housing initiative. Its philosophy and programs reflect the dignity of women and supports them in claiming their own power. Women are encouraged to make choices that are appropriate for them, to develop personal responsibility, to live independently in permanent housing and to achieve their full potential. Each woman is expected to pay for part of the cost of her stay at Maria House including her personal items, food, clothing, transportation and operating expenses for the program. Even though this amount is generally only a small percentage (30% of monthly income) of the total cost of her stay, it helps her develop a greater sense of responsibility and derive satisfaction from being able to support herself, at least partially. Hours: Monday - Friday 8 am - 5 pm


Mission Statement: Maria House Project is a home mission in the Diocese of Erie, founded by Fr. James Peterson in 1971, providing small group living for 30-35 men needing community to heal. Maria House Project residents are recovering from addictions, incarceration, homelessness, mental and emotional illness, probation and parole, war and isolation.

Services: Budgeting, Parent Skills, Womens health issues, social skills, communication skills, legal advocacy, housing advocacy
