Place of Pride ...
We are proud of the work we do at SisterHouse.
We know with God's help and the support of
caring people we will continue to be and to do
God's will.
SisterHouse opened its doors in 1982 in response to an expressed need for a short term home for women leaving prison. Established by Sister Anne Mayer, SSND, as part
of the Institute for Women Today, it has evolved into a home for any woman
needing shelter as
she works her recovery program.
At SisterHouse we are together in a family
environment that shares a commitment to
excel in improving our lives in all dimensions. |

Each new member is welcomed with genuine loving care that will continue to speak in word and deed as together we begin a new life. |

SisterHouse is sponsored by the School Sisters of Notre Dame,
Atlantic-Midwest Province.
