SECU Family House provides safe, nurturing, affordable lodging for those traveling to nearby UNC Hospitals for treatment of serious health conditions. Guests are provided not only lodging, but are also offered meals, supportive programs, transportation, and a caring support network. Since 2008, we have served more than 25,000 guests from all 100 NC counties, 44 States, and 7 Countries. All share a common thread—they, or their loved one is facing treatment for serious illness or injury such as cancer, organ or stem cell transplant, life-threatening burns, traumatic injuries, severe eating disorders, postpartum depression, and more. Family House provides a supportive environment help them rest, heal, and gather strength when they need it most. With a recent expansion to meet demand for our unique accommodations, the House now offers 75 guest rooms and suites. The House’s beautiful and comfortable common areas, including a Great Room with a fireplace and a large, modern kitchen, set it apart —providing guests, united by similar circumstances, opportunities to form friendships and networks of support. Demand for our rooms is high and with the recent expansion from 40 to 75 rooms, we are so grateful to and reliant on our generous donors and wonderful volunteers.
