Unity Acres is a House of Hospitality for men in Orwell. Their mission is to provide a safe, caring, and permanent home for men, and particularly those who have become chronically homeless due to alcohol or substance abuse, or other factors. Its founder and Director, until his death, Father Ray McVey, believed that the Acres should not receive any state or federal funding, but rather operate and care for its residents through the free will offerings and gifts of people who commit to caring for those who cannot care for themselves.
