Horizon House is proud to team with Philadelphia City Councilman Curtis Jones, Jr. and other West Philadelphia-based nonprofits and businesses for the upcoming West Philly Health Fair and Holiday Giveaway on Saturday, Dec. 16.

We will be on hand to provide information and resources on our services to members of the local community. There will also be health screenings and other resources available from other numerous organizations.

And, starting at 1 p.m., Jolly Old St. Nick himself, Santa Claus, will arrive to hand out gifts to the children in attendance and conduct raffles for gift baskets for the adults on hand.

All members of the community are welcome! Spread the word and join us for a day of fun Holiday cheer!

 

We are beyond excited to share with you CBS Philadelphia’s feature story that aired on Horizon House participant Renee.

Renee is a Behavioral Health Services participant who attends group sessions at our Providence House location in Delaware County. She has struggled with mental illness for the better part of 40 years, but is now using her experiences and recovery to help others through her published self-help books.

Not only that, Renee is also using the books to give back to those who have helped her. She will not be taking any profit from her newest book, which was released on Amazon on Nov. 1. Instead, she intends to give back to the places that have helped her in her recovery.

We are so proud of you, Renee! Thank you for having the courage to tell your inspiring story!
