Founded in 1856 by a small group of Haverhill churchwomen whose objective was to create a home for aged women, the Stevens-Bennett Home recently celebrated its 150th anniversary. It took nineteen years of dedicated fund-raising to reach the goal of $20,000.00 needed to build the original home and it was finally dedicated on October 18, 1876. Seven ladies were admitted the first year and were tended by a matron and a maid. (More History »)

The home provides living arrangements for women who are over age 65 and are able to move around unassisted. Each resident has a private room decorated to their taste. Some have their own televisions and mini-refrigerators. There are also common areas, some with televisions, and some without, to allow for quiet times. All meals are home-cooked by a full-time kitchen staff and served in a gracious, airy dining room. Several years ago, an addition was added to the front of the building. Its bright, light filled atmosphere lends itself to a comfortable location from which to watch the activity on Main Street. (More Lifestyle »)
