What their customers say
Quotes from people at Columbus House, Inc.'s customers.
“I didn't know how the program worked until I got here. Really I imagined it would be like a flophouse. But I was amazed and surprised. It's not a flophouse at all. It's like a retreat. I didn't know they really cared.”
“I didn't think I had the will to survive this but they showed me that no matter what I'm going through, they're here for me. That means a lot.”
“Things are starting to fall into place. Columbus House gives me structure. When I have structure in my life, I do better. I do well when I don't have idle time, when I'm working or with my family, or attending meetings. I go to church on Sundays when I can. I do whatever I’m told – help with a meal, clean the bathroom. I know that it's time to give back.”
“The staff is wonderful, I just love working with them! I see that they are dedicated to their clients. They make it so easy for me to drop off items, and they share where some of the pieces go. I like to hear the rest of the story.”
““It’s a privilege to live in this house. It’s not just a room, it’s a lot of things. It’s a community, it’s a family, it’s us learning how to live a lot better.”

“Columbus House got me the help I needed and finally I was ready.”
“And Columbus House never gave up on me. They saw something in me that I didn’t. It took me long enough, but I think I’m there now.”
“I can smile now. I feel safer knowing that my children and I can sleep in a comfortable environment where we can get the help we need to be hopeful for our future.”
“Being homeless, your dignity gets in the way.”
“I never did that before. I just wanted to numb myself. And then everything went downhill – it happened in the blink of an eye.”
“I always questioned God, ‘Why did this happen to me?’ I kept hearing this voice saying, ‘Why not you? Who are you?’”
“I feel like there is more out there for me and I’m just going to keep pushing.”
“I felt comfortable. I had my own bed, and I could leave my belongings.”
“I had the option to work in another state, but my husband had just died, and I went through this tumultuous experience for over a year…I wasn’t ready or capable of moving to another state to work.”
“People really want to work with you and help you when you let them know you really want to do something with your life.”
““I was being released. If I had slept outside that night, I was going to get high. She made sure I didn’t.””
““She didn’t let me down once, it was awesome.””
““Without you guys I’d still be in the hole and living with rats.””
“And Columbus House will have played a big role. Not just because they provide shelter but because they provide more. They integrate everything. They know it’s the combination of housing and counseling and treatment programs and goal setting. With all that in place, you can’t lose, if you’re willing.”
“Something I value about Columbus House is that they really care, I see it in all the people I’ve met. A big part of my recovery has been being with people who really follow through. Columbus House staff do that.”
“The staff pay real close attention to you and take you step by step. I feel very supported. I’ve never had that before.”
“I can smile now. I feel safer knowing my children and I can sleep in a comfortable environment.”
