About Us
Based in Washington State,
House of Mercy is a non-profit organization, established in 2005 by Bob and Barb Faulk.
Bob began by visiting the prisons with a message of hope to those incarcerated, eventually he opened their home to those being released with no where to go.
HOM has grown to numerous residential shared housing locations, serving hundreds of men annually throughout Washington State.

Who We Serve
HOM continues Bob’s mission by offering a “home” to those in our community in need of a second chance.
We help them build sustainable lives for themselves and their families by creating an atmosphere of transformation and tolerance to remove the hindering stigmas that accompany incarceration, homelessness, mental illness and substance abuse disorders.
We offer a “hand up” rather than a “hand out” by providing faith-based structured, stable and supportive housing where they can begin the process of healing and restoration.
Our goal is for them to resume their God-given roles as fathers, husbands, sons, brothers and friends and leaders.
Benefits
Community
The most important factor in recovery and anti-recidivism is having community support. Experienced peers can help one another navigate unexpected obstacles. Knowing that you are not alone in your struggles brings encouragement and inspiration.
Discipleship
Many men today haven’t found positive examples to help them understand what leadership is. They struggle to understand what it means to be fathers, husbands and sons and to find their purpose in society.
Employment
Our networks, and long term reputation, mean we have employer connections that are willing to work with people in transition without judgement. Nearly 500 individuals a year go through the program constantly expanding our networks.
Clean & Sober
There is strength in numbers, and living among a group of people sharing common interests to move forward in life, brings accountability and understanding to struggles with addiction. Having a roommate and regulatory UAs increases accountability and responsibility to a community.
