Street Outreach & Day Center
Street Outreach
During street outreach, we go into areas of Dayton known for homelessness and street prostitution. The women we encounter are given roses and handwritten cards of encouragement, showing them their value through the eyes of Christ. Women also have access to hot home-cooked meals, clothing, and hygiene items.
Day Center
MONDAY'S & THURSDAY'S 10:00AM-2:00PM
The purpose for the day center is to form deeper connection and relationship with the women we encounter on the street. Through building trusting relationships, we believe they will be empowered to take the next step towards freedom. At the day center we offer rest, showers, hot meals, free clothes, and most importantly, love without a cost. Christian discipleship classes are offered and incentivized.

Navigating through systems that provide assistance can be overwhelming. R House specializes in resourcing our clients with the agencies that can meet their needs. Agencies we most commonly connect our clients with are local drug and alcohol rehabs, homeless/emergency shelters, identification recovery, medical assistance programs, and jail/court advocacy programs.
Rescue
Resource
Rescue
Rescue is a big word that requires both prayer and a plan. When we encounter a woman on the streets or in the day center, they are asked a question, "Is today the day?" The day they are ready to take a step towards health and healing. For some, this step can be not only mentally difficult, but dangerous. We work with top quality agencies equipped for this cause!
