Haley House is a spiritually based community nurtured by the personalist tradition of the Catholic Worker Movement.� As a community and as individuals, Haley House struggles to carry out a double mandate: to minister to the needs of society�s forgotten people and to challenge and offer alternatives to the attitudes, institutions, and structures that create and perpetuate suffering and violence. Haley House believes that an individual will be better equipped to help himself or herself if he or she can receive the respect that every human being must have in order to grow and prosper.� Volunteers have learned that recovery is possible when people participate by committing themselves with others to attempt to end the condition and state of mind of homelessness.� Men and women, some of whom are formerly homeless, live together in community, manage and staff the soup kitchen, and join in the operation of the extended Haley House organization.� Recently, a team of these men and professional volunteers has stared up an entrepreneurial effort in the form of a bakery, which has grown into a prospering business in Dudley Square. The soup kitchen is open to homeless men for breakfast and lunch from 6:00 am to 1:00 pm.� The morning guests are homeless for a variety of reasons: alcohol and drug addition, serious psychological problems, and unemployment.� Some have rooms but no employment; some have marginal or temporary jobs with little income.� Many sleep in local shelters.� Elderly neighbors join the other guests three evenings each week, Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, for food and companionship.� Many of the senior citizens served live in isolated rooms or senior housing projects.
