About Capuchin Soup Kitchen - Jefferson House
The Capuchin Soup Kitchen sponsors Jefferson House, a twelve-bed, residential treatment facility for indigent males seeking to reclaim their lives from addictions. Residents normally complete their rehabilitation in six to nine months. They participate in twelve-step recovery meetings, and are encouraged to continue such participation following their departure from Jefferson House. The program also provides opportunity to work at other Capuchin Soup Kitchen locations, for which the men are paid a modest stipend.
