Getting Closer to Home

Every day we get a little Closer to Home in Cambridge – thanks to you!

So much is taking place at 562 Concession Road, home of House of Friendship’s future men’s residential addiction treatment facility that these few photos don’t quite do it justice. It couldn’t be a busier hive of activity these days.

Floor slabs in the basement were being cut and concrete removed to accommodate new and relocated bathrooms, footings were being poured for the new elevator shaft, framers were wrapping up the final front wall and roof trusses and roofers were on top, laying down shingles about as fast as plywood could go down.

Work will be ongoing over the holidays.

Thank you for your commitment to the Close to Home project, which will provide greater dignity, expanded programming and access. In addition to men’s residential treatment, this facility will provide day treatment for men and women, as well as individual and family counselling.

The project is expected to be finished by summer 2019. For more photos, please visit our Facebook page, at houseoffriendshipwr.
