Our Mission: For all of those in need, Emmaus Center provides canned foods, meals, clothing, counseling for mental health/substance abuse issues, life skills education and referrals for financial assistance and social services. For those who become regularly involved, a sense of community develops in which work, study and daily interaction serve to strengthen their ability to engage in more lasting and constructive relationships with others. Spiritual direction is offered to those who seek it; it becomes central in many of the lives at Emmaus Center, especially for those who have entered into a program of recovery.
Through life in community the people develop a sense of self-worth, and a range of positive relationship skills that assist them in rising out of the life situation they find themselves in and re-enter back into society. We believe that people will rise to a better life when they begin to believe they have something of value to give back by serving others.
