At the Wenholz House (2004) and the Wenholz Women's House (2009), we provide a safe, structured, and supported sober living environment to adult men and women in recovery from drug and alcohol addictions. As a Coastal Bend program specializing in supportive housing for adults in addiction recovery, we serve about 60 people daily. We work with many agencies and normally have a waiting list for bed space. Wenholz House is an approved Alternate Housing Resource for the Texas Dept. of Criminal Justice in Corpus Christi. Most residents come from families, hospitals, detox and treatment facilities, with some coming directly off the streets.

We are funded by churches, private donors, humanitarian groups, area foundations, and through your generous gifts received on the Coastal Bend Day of Giving. Residents with an appropriate recovery period and employment are expected to pay a modest weekly rent. Our live-in staff guides residents as they seek appropriate aftercare, attend on-site recovery meetings, secure employment, and reunify with family, friends, and the community. Food is free for those "Souls in Need"..."Safety, Sobriety, and Support".... thank you for your gifts.
