ORCA House History
ORCA House is one of the oldest African-American founded substance abuse centers in the country. Built in 1942, several recovering individuals made it their mission to bring recovery services to Cleveland. Years later, ORCA House continues to serve men and women afflicted by addiction.
Additionally, there are plans in place to build out a new, beautifully designed ORCA House. The new improved facility will open sometime in 2020.
