About Meta House

Meta House was established in 1963 and first began operations at 2843 W. State Street. In the 1980s, the organization relocated to the Riverwest neighborhood after it acquired two facilities in which it could grow its residential clinical operations. Today the nonprofit organization fulfills its mission to end the generational cycle of addiction by healing women and strengthening families through its comprehensive clinical programming, which includes residential treatment, an outpatient clinic, and recovery housing. Meta House is one of the only treatment providers in Wisconsin to allow women to bring their children into the residential treatment program so mother and child can heal simultaneously. Services are comprehensive and designed to meet each client’s unique needs.

Key Impacts of Project Horizon

Increase capacity of the residential treatment program to 100.
Expand the scope of on-site services through partnerships & co-location. This will improve access for women and their children to vital services such as primary care, dental care, and Medication Assisted Treatment, an evidence-based best practice in the treatment of Opioid Use Disorder.
Create a pipeline of mental health professionals through the expansion of Meta House’s robust internship program.
