The History of Benilde Hall
Benilde Hall began providing transitional housing and substance
abuse treatment to indigent homeless men in 1993. Since its
inception, more than 1800 men have received housing and treatment.
In 2001 due to the community needs, Benilde Hall more than doubled
their capacity by moving into the present location that houses 50
men. In 2006, Benilde Hall opened Matt Talbot, a 12 unit permanent
housing apartment building for men who successfully completed the
Benilde Hall program.
