Frequently Asked Questions Privacy Statement
St. Luke's House, Inc., (SLH)
was founded in 1971 by concerned citizens from St. Luke's Episcopal Church in
Bethesda, MD, to address the needs of patients being released from state
psychiatric hospitals who had no place to go. SLH was established independently
soon thereafter, and the first group home was opened.
|
Known primarily for
providing housing and psychiatric rehabilitation in its early years, St. Luke's
House has grown to provide comprehensive mental health services. The programs
range from the psychiatric rehabilitation program, including supported living,
life skills training and vocational rehabilitation, to the mental health
clinic, 24-hour crisis care and services for youth with serious emotional
disabilities. Clients are also assisted in obtaining medical care, food,
clothing and household necessities. |
Activities for
recreation and socialization are offered as well. St. Luke's House owns and/or
operates 31 group homes and apartments in the community with a 111-bed
capacity. We currently provide comprehensive psychiatric care and treatment to
over 800 youth and adults and can be credited with helping more than 4,000
individuals return to active community life.
St. Luke's House,
Inc., is an independent non-profit 501(c) (3) organization. It is licensed by
