History:
The House of Nazareth is a non profit organization founded by Sister Rita Barrieau in 1979. In 1978, Sister Barrieau became preoccupied by the number of people in dire need in the Greater Moncton area and felt compelled to help them. Since then, the House of Nazareth helps vulnerable people and families to become independent and active members of society. The number of people using our services each year is proof that those services are essential to the community.
