In the mid-1960's, advances in the treatment of mental illness allowed patients of mental hospitals to regain their sense of self and their abilities.

Medications to calm troubling symptoms - and public policy directed at moving people out of institutions - combined to initiate the community mental health movement.

Fellowship Housing Opportunities, Inc. (previously known as "Opportunity House, Inc.") was founded in 1966 by a group of community leaders who were concerned about providing decent housing to the number of people being released into Concord from the New Hampshire Hospital. In its early years, the corporation operated two "halfway houses" that offered a safe and comfortable setting for people making this difficult transition.
