he ABC House Strath Haven has been a part of the ministry and mission of SPC since 1975. Since that time, not only has SPC given use of the house at 731 Harvard Ave and helped to steward the property, countless individuals and families from our congregation have served as Host Families, Board members, and community advocates, among other critical volunteer offerings.
Given our long history and initiative with ABC Strath Haven, it is time again that SPC is needed to help in efforts to revitalize the visibility of the house and of the program in our wider community.
