ZACCHAEUS HOUSE is a ministry of Catholic Deacons offering hospitality to men in transition to stability in their lives by offering a safe, caring home with time to heal and to believe.
In 1999 a group of Archdiocesan Deacons, had a conversation with the Most Reverend Joseph N. Perry, Auxiliary Bishop of Chicago, wishing to provide a response to the growing number of homeless men in Chicago. “By providing a Christian home we're saving lives by transforming men into stable and productive citizens,” says Bishop Joseph N. Perry.
ZACCHAEUS HOUSE is a non-for-profit, non-treatment residential facility, providing a home for men in transition to heal and grow. Our mission is to help men achieve stable productive lives through our Lord Jesus Christ. We are not a drug treatment program or an overnight homeless shelter.
With emphasis on spiritual development, church attendance and charitable services, residents are guided towards God’s merciful acceptance of them, recovery of self-esteem and recognition of the fundamental dignity of all persons.
How can you help? Pray for the men of the house, Support our events, Host a fundraiser and Donate.
