About us
For almost 90 years, Samaritas has served others as an expression of the love of Christ with programs to help Michigan’s disadvantaged families, and individuals thrive. Samaritas is the state’s largest foster care and adoption organization, with a full suite of family preservation programs and options like Substance Use Disorder (SUD) services to keep families together. We are one of the largest providers of refugee services, resettling families from all over the world. We provide senior care and living communities with a full continuum of services, including independent and assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing options within a faith-based family community. Samaritas is all about home, offering housing solutions for adults with developmental disabilities, homeless families, and affordable living communities for those who qualify for HUD housing.
