‘‘Em a case manager at Horizon House as well as her supervisor Claudia does nothing but lie. They don’t care if someone has definite plans of ending their existence aka their life. Plus Horizon House uses the words homeless and homelessness which are degrading and demeaning. Too bad there isn’t a way to give this place as well as both arm and Claudia 0 stars cause that’s exactly what they deserve.

I started volunteering at Horizon House after learning about the organization when researching the issue of homelessness. I fell in love with Horizon House and their mission. Now I am an intern there & I love Horizon House and everything they do for my community!

I was a partner and donor before coming to work at Horizon House. It is unique in philosophy, collaboration, and outcomes- all of which are at the top of services for individuals experiencing homelessness.

I have been a board member for the past three years and before that I volunteered. What I am most appreciative of is the comprehensive services Horizon House provides for our homeless neighbors. They include job readiness, mock interviews, medical and mental health onsite clinic, laundry facility, showers, interview clothing, bus passes to get to job interviews and help to obtain housing to name a few. The programs are definitely not a hand out but a hand up. Their services are provided with a level of caring support that helps individuals get back on their feet with dignity. The staff at Horizon House works tirelessly to achieve success with those individuals who are willing and those who aren't. They never give up on anyone. I would encourage anyone interested in helping our city improve and end homelessness to visit Horizon House and spend some time there. Every time I hear a success story of someone who has received the services Horizon House provides and has become a very productive citizen and all they overcame with the support, I am proud to be a contributing board member. I am ready for three more years!

I have volunteered at Horizon House for over a decade and continue to be amazed by the compassionate care provided to so many neighbors. The co-location of services is one of the most unique aspects of the center. Basic needs - showers, laundry, an address for mail; health services - an outpatient clinic of Eskenazi Health; case workers, job placement and outreach on the streets. I came back to Horizon House after years away from the board during which I volunteered at HH because I felt so strongly about their mission, the service they provide and the manner in which they provide it. I've found them to be more than worthy of time and treasure.
