How We Help
Samaritan Inns provides homeless and at-risk men and women with holistic services to aid them on the road to recovery.
-
Phase 1: Intensive Treatment Program Our Intensive Adult Treatment Program offers homeless and at-risk men and women the opportunity to rebuild their lives with structured housing and a range of holistic healing services.
-
Phase 2: Men’s & Women’s Treatment Programs Fully certified by the DC Department of Behavioral Health, Phase 2 of our Treatment and Recovery Continuum is a 3-6 month program that empowers men and women to expand on the principles and tools learned during Phase 1 of their treatment and recovery journey, applying relapse prevention skills and positive social skills.
-
Phase 3: Long-Term Recovery Program Our Long-Term Recovery program is the culmination of our residents’ journey with us and provides ongoing support and guidance as they work toward lasting recovery. In this third phase of our Continuum, men and women with 6+ months of sobriety, a sponsor, and stable income, have the opportunity to lease one of our affordable SRO units, in a sober community of like-minded peers.

Our Team
Opening our doors in 1985, founders David Erickson and Killian Noe started a lasting legacy of hope in our nation’s capital. They not only provided shelter for those in need but offered counseling and treatment to help people struggling under the weight of drug and alcohol addictions. Since then, our team has grown but our calling and our mission have never wavered. We strive to empower everyone we meet with our unconditional love and empathy to help foster growth and protect clients against relapse.
Many of our team members have walked in your shoes, having been residents themselves. They are now called to give back and impart their wisdom and experience to others who are on the same path. We are also grateful for our extensive partnerships within the community that allow Samaritan Inns to effectively meet the needs of at-risk individuals.
