Please join us in congratulating our latest class of Leadership Academy graduates!

The St. Matthew's House Leadership Academy is a professional development opportunity for emerging leaders within our organization. Participants are nominated by their supervisors and meet monthly to learn about topics such as team building, conflict-resolution, time management, confidentiality, accountability and more.

These individuals completed the year-long class culminating in a presentation about what they  learned.

To afford living in Naples after her husband passed away, Linda moved in with a roommate. When her roommate developed dementia and had to move into assisted living, Linda found herself homeless at 78 years old. Now, with the help of St. Matthew’s House, Linda’s found a fresh start.

This summer, thanks to St. John’s Episcopal Church and anonymous donors, your gift will be matched!
