Description

Maria House offers hospitality and opportunity to women, alone or with children, who are in need of emergency/transitional housing and related support services. More than 200 women and children have been served by Maria House over the past four years.

Maria House began serving women and children on September 25, 2000 and is the first project of Opening Doors, a community service organization that was initiated by six Catholic women religious communities and became a tax-exempt, non-profit charitable corporation in June, 1999.

Maria House is one of sixteen non-profit agencies who receive funding from United Way Services of Dubuque.
