The right chance can transform lives, turning their future from bleak to bright. That chance is what we offer at The Extension—a comprehensive, residential recovery program serving homeless men and women who suffer from addiction to alcohol or drugs.
We take a chance on them. For them, it’s the chance of a lifetime.

So happy to have been a part of this place during those 1st years. Working with some of the women and it helped me more than it ever helped them. Thank you to the Women’s Extension for allowing me to be apart.
Beautiful
So proud that I’ve been part of The Extension - it brings me joy to see the growth and the life of many changes!!!
That place has saved so many lives. Mine included. ❤️
I love, love, love this place...it will be my safe place forever...my home❤
My life was forever changed by working to help open this beautiful home and then the day we opened.... I brought my mediocre belongings that meant so very much to me in that moment I just knew I couldn't live without it. Lol (I don't even know where any of that stuff is now.) I was so scare-cited. Since then so many more memories have been made surrounding the place I will forever call home. My life has been forever changed and I'm so grateful. Thank you to The Extension, and all the beautiful people that walked along side me on my journey.
I moved in September 9th of that year. The Extension saved my life and the lives of many other beautiful women whom I am grateful to call sisters. Retta Robinson "How do you eat an elephant?" One Day At A Time
