Tours of Restoring Waters begin in the lobby (4:30) and continue every 15 minutes with the last tour at 6:45 PM. Tours run approximately 20 minutes.

Alex Dalbey-Thomas communications specialist for Emma Norton Services says “Restoring Waters isn’t just a new and bigger building for Emma Norton residents and staff; it’s built specifically with trauma-informed design. Restoring Waters will have a designated space for a Living Room model. This means dignity and independence for residents, safety and privacy, inviting spaces and a sense of stability and security for everyone who walks through the doors.”

Each resident will have their own individual space with cooking facilities, bed, and a bathroom. If a woman is pregnant, the baby may stay with her in her private space.

Emma Norton Residence, Restoring Waters, capital campaign is in full swing. You are called to help lift the response over the top. Contact Shawna Nelsen-Wills, Advancement Dir. at snelsen@emmanorton.org or call 651-251-2632.
