The Quinn House and The C3 Church in Lawrenceville are partnering to update a men’s transitional home.

Volunteers have installed a new sewer system at the Quinn House home on Hurricane Shoals Road. C3 Church donations of labor, materials and time paid for more than half of the project’s $60,000 price tag.

The Quinn House provides a residential program for the homeless and a 40-day drug and alcohol program. There are three homes for men and women, and one for women with children in Gwinnett. The Quinn House also operates a food bank and thrift store.
