Independence House Program Support
The Independence Houses at Emmaus House's campus support youth in developing independence skills with supervision. Residency is earned through hard work, commitment, and trustworthiness. There will be one house for males and one for females, each accommodating up to 6 residents. Youth will live independently but have weekly check-ins with Social Worker, collaborating on budgeting, cooking, and maintaining cleanliness.
