Nagbibigay si Emmaus Dover ng isang bahay at makabuluhang gawain hanggang sa 26 kalalakihan at kababaihan na nakaranas ng kawalan ng tirahan at pagbubukod sa lipunan. They offer a warm and caring home for as long as it is needed and help residents to regain self-esteem and find a positive way to move forward with their lives. Ang pag -aayos ng mga banyo ay bahagi ng isang patuloy na proyekto upang mapabuti ang mga pasilidad para sa mga residente bilang maliwanag, malinis at maayos na mga silid ay nagpapadala ng isang malaking mensahe na sila ay iginagalang at pinahahalagahan.
Si Emmaus Dover ay may karagdagang mapaghangad na mga plano sa susunod 2-3 taon kasama ang pagbuo ng isang bagong pagawaan, Isang modernong pasilidad ng tingi, at resurfacing ang parke ng kotse at pag -access sa mga kalsada.
