What We Do
Worthy Heart Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to providing clean and sober shared housing for individuals on their path to better living. Our homes are strategically located in safe, secure neighborhoods that foster pride and community. We serve veterans, adults aging out of foster care, silver singles, individuals in recovery, and those involved in the justice system. Our residents are treated with compassion, respect, and kindness as they build self-confidence and work toward self-sufficiency. They participate in regular meetings, maintain their living spaces, and adhere to house rules, all while holding jobs or pursuing education to forge new life stories. We also support medically approved treatments for addiction.
Veterans
Substance use disorder and PTSD are major factors contributing to homelessness among veterans. Without proper support, these issues can worsen, leading to homelessness. Veterans are 50% more likely to become homeless than other Americans, with 1.5 million at risk due to poverty, poor living conditions, and lack of support after discharge.
Foster Adults
Nearly 1.7 million youths experience at least one night of homelessness each year due to family issues, economic problems, or abductions. Homelessness in children, teens, and young adults often leads to low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Those aged 12 to 21 are also at a much higher risk of drug abuse compared to their housed peers.
Why Choose Us
At Worthy Heart Foundation, we are dedicated to more than just providing housing—we offer a holistic journey toward recovery and self-sufficiency. Our clean, sober homes are strategically situated in safe, well-kept neighborhoods that foster community and pride, creating an environment where residents can thrive. Each home is a supportive sanctuary, where individuals are treated with compassion, respect, and dignity.
