Our History

Tarry House has been serving adults with mental illness for over fifty years. Tarry House began as a project of the Summit Service League in 1967 to provide a half-way house for adults being discharged from institutions during the new age of deinstitutionalization. The Tarry House Women’s Board continued to raise funds and guide the program until 1969 when the charter of the Board of Trustees was established.
