– OUR STORY –

A Note from Our Founder, Daniel Colson

“Long-term recovery from mental health issues is hard enough in all cases, but when the treatment facility operates in another language from your own, the task is all but impossible. After experiencing this struggle with a family member, we founded Dunham House to give anglophones a safe refuge to overcome their mental health challenges and reclaim their lives.”

– Dan Colson
