Hawley House
  • Located in Historic West Salem, the Hawley House
    is a 9 month residential facility that provides a
    structured program which includes a 12-Step
    recovery plan, counseling, employment assistance,
    literacy classes and NA and AA meetings. At the
    Hawley House women get their lives back on track
    by recovering from the disease of addiction. They
    find an environment that fosters responsibility,
    respect for self and others and a supportive
    staff.

Empowerment of Women
  • Supportive Services ensures the delivery of
    effective services to those with the greatest
    needs, especially women seeking a positive
    lifestyle change. Programs of Supportive Services
    of Women teach women to better manage their lives
    by providing life and social skills training that
    lead to employment, increased literacy, economic
    enhancement and long term self sufficiency.

    similar situations.
