Miracle Hill Ministries hosted a ribbon-cutting May 18 to mark the completion of its Restoration Way project, which consists of eight houses for graduates of its Overcomers program to live in as they transition back into society.
Each home may house up to six people, with as many as 48 men staying at Restoration Way from six months to two years, based on each man’s individual needs.
“In 2007, we started our first transitional housing community Grace Point over off of White Horse Road and that was kind of our first delve into offering a transitional spot for men who were exiting addiction recovery,” said Miracle Hill Ministries CEO Ryan Dureck. “Over the years, we have greatly expanded transitional housing. Today, we have 15 transitional sites and as the dust settles on this program we will have 110 beds outside of our programs and shelters dedicated to transitional housing.”
With the Restoration Way project complete, the nonprofit plans to reallocate the apartments being used by the Overcomers program at the Greenville Rescue Mission and a house on Cyrus Court, which has been used as transitional housing, to the Greenville Rescue Mission.
In addition, MHM is renovating a house around Edwards Road to be used as a transitional house for Shephard’s Gate.
The Restoration Way project started in 2018 and the first houses on the property began housing program participants 13 months ago.
