Homeless Transitional Housing
Samaritan Inn
The Samaritan Inn is transitional residential living with supportive services for up to 12 homeless adult men at a time. Men may stay for up to 24 months.
The Inn took its first resident in 1989, and today is the only HUD-approved transitional housing for adult males in the Kanawha Valley. The Inn, a stately 3-story Victorian home-like facility is conveniently located in downtown Charleston, close to bus lines and businesses.
Upon entry, each resident works with staff to establish individualized goals designed to overcome the obstacles to permanent, independent living. Each resident is required to work, and pay up to 30% of his income in rent, maintain his own living area, share the cooking and cleaning responsibilities, participate in a life skills curriculum, substance abuse education, case management, and participate in community volunteer activities.
The Samaritan Inn:
- Provides a safe environment to recover from homelessness.
- Offers services that permanently change the lives of men who have been homeless.
- Graduates men who are counted among the productive, independent citizens of our community
