Review for River House Inc, Beverly, MA, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

The River House offers a place for men to rebuild a life that they have lost or never had. The shelter builds an amazing sense of community among residents, who support one another as much as the staff of the River House supports them. I am thankful for the wholistic approach to service that the River House takes, by offering individually tailored case management, and a dedication to "graduating" men from the River House to permanent housing and regular income. The River House is one of the North Shore's "Great Nonprofits" demonstrating leadership in their dedication to tailoring service to meet our communities' needs.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Expand the physical space of the house to accommodate more men in the shelter, provide access to the Bass River and create a large garden plot for growing food.
