St. Christopher's Inn, a ministry of the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement, is a temporary homeless shelter that has been dedicated to the rehabilitation of men in crisis for over 100 years. Our mission is to offer a continuum of quality health care services that facilitate physical, emotional, and spiritual healing by providing Chemical Dependency Treatment, Primary Health Care, and Temporary Housing. We strive to restore the personal dignity of each individual by utilizing a holistic approach in all our programs. No one is ever turned away because of race, religion, or economic status.\\Now with 177 beds, Clients are treated for substance abuse problems, receive psychiatric evaluations and treatment, get their medications stabilized in a safe environment, and have access to primary care including physicals, testing, coordination of care and health education, all in a safe clean environment. Since over 35% of clients entering day treatment programs report they do not have stable housing, SCI offers shelter, food, clothing, a support network and education, contributing to successful long-term outcomes. In 2013 alone, the Friars and Staff at the Inn served nearly 200,000 meals and provided over a half million dollars in scholarships for chemical dependency treatment, medication, medical services, and transportation to the men who came to our homeless shelter and were admitted to our CARF Accredited, OASAS licensed outpatient substance abuse treatment programs.
