Casserole Club for Maria House Project

Maria House Project is a drug and alcohol counseling and recovery facility for men.
We also house men released from correctional facilities that are in need of a new way of life.

It's philosophy and programs reflect the dignity of men and supports them in claiming their own power. These men are encouraged to make choices that are appropriate for them, to develop personal responsibility, and to live independently in permanent housing and to achieve their full potential.

Several years ago, Fr. James Peterson, of the Diocese of Erie, PA, recognized the need for emergency housing and counseling for men with addictions. He brought this need to the attention of the Diocese of Erie. The Diocese agreed that there was a pressing need and that this was a project worthy of their joint effort.
