Shalom House Perth WA

The West Australian Shalom Group is a not for profit charitable organization which has as its main function, the oversight of Shalom House.


Shalom House is a residential rehabilitations centre for men located in the Swan Valley of WA, specializing in the treatment of drug and alcohol related ailments as well as other life-controlling problems. It was founded in 2012 by Peter Lyndon James, who had spent many years in and out of Children's Homes, Institutions and prisons for crimes which were the result of his drug addiction. It is built on the belief that every man is a champion, and that addiction is not a consequence of choice, but recovery is. Its aim is to restore to full functionality in the lives of men who choose the recovery option.

As well as residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation, the West Australian Shalom Group has other community outreach services available for men in the Perth Metropolitan region. These have been structured to meet the needs of men in our community where traditionally those needs have been downplayed or ignored by society.
They provide a safe and confidential environment for men to be able to speak about their life experiences and the personal battles they face without fear of criticism, and to get the emotional support that comes from finding that many others share the same battles. In sharing their experiences and finding solutions to the problems through the sharing, lives are changed, marriages restored, and men can rise up into the full potential they have in their manhood.
