support for
addiction recovery
Our Saviour's Jubilee Transitional Housing program provides 50 much-needed beds for people recovering from drug and alcohol addiction in the San Gabriel Valley.
The program offers both men and women supportive transitional housing while they get back on their feet and reenter the mainstream of society. Residents can live in one of four Jubilee Homes for six months to two years. In return they agree to pay an affordable rent, be a respectful neighbor, perform chores, attend two or three 12-Step meetings each week, and get a sponsor.
Many of Jubilee Homes' residents come to the program off the streets, out of prison, or from a rehabilitation program.
A Resident Manager lives at each site to maintain the household and assist in the residents' recovery. A "Design for Living" class is offered twice a month to offer additional support for people who often have been out of the mainstream of society for many years.
The Church of Our Saviour Jubilee Transitional Housing program began in the summer of 2002 when Bill Doulos joined the Church staff as its Director of Housing Ministry. Mr. Doulos was previously on the staff of Union Station in Pasadena for 16 years, the last 10 as its Director.
Our transitional housing ministry supports people in the process of transforming their lives and affirming what is best in themselves. Often residents continue this process by helping newcomers to the program on their road to recovery.
