Eden House

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of Kara French, the Eden House in New Orleans has been created to become the only long-term, residential facility for individuals attempting to leave prostitution in Louisiana. Modeled after Magdalene, Eden House will provide six women a safe and supportive home for two years, free of cost.

Kara had attended Magdalene's Education Workshops to learn about our program and now serves as the Founder and Executive Director of Eden House.

New Orleans Police Department Chief Ronal Serpas had worked along side the Magdalene program when he served as Nashville's Chief of Police. He believes that Eden House can have the same success in New Orleans.

Watch a great story on the program HERE and to get more information on or donate to Eden House, go to their website: www.edenhousenola.org.
