Services

Hope House Offers…

many services to our program participants and the community. “Enrichment for Life” is an essential part of our program designed to create positive triggers for our clients that are designed to replace or offset the addiction triggers they will face in their new life. We work to accomplish this by using the positive events, programs and visits available in the general community.  We visit regional museums, community events and other positive reinforcement programs.  

THREE PROGRAM COMPONENTS…

#1 Homeless Shelter:  
Our men’s shelter opens every day at 4:00 PM.  The shelter provides two meals a day and a bed for all that request it.  We handle all except for those with behavior concerns.  Men leave the shelter each day at 7:00 AM and may return that afternoon.

#2 Residential Recovery Program:  
We operate a residential recovery program for men facing their personal addictions.  This program deals with addictions to drugs, alcohol or any combination of them.  The youngest client age is 18.  Clients live at the Hope House as long as their individualized program lasts, usually about 4-6 months.  Classes are daily both in the morning and afternoon.  The men in the program handle the daily responsibilities of the Hope House through their community meetings and accountability. 

#3 Halfway House/Mentoring Program: 
Upon graduation, men may be eligible to stay at the Hope House and work as mentors.  They live in the building and earn income to help get a new start.

Rather than working as a mentor, some men elect to continue living at the Hope House but to work in the community.  The Halfway House program allows them to ease into society in a new community setting.  We offer them continuing support and a safe place to live.  

Additional Alumni Services:  
Upon returning to society full-time, alumni keep in touch with the Hope House to help in dealing with the triggers they face and making use of their new coping skills.  The Hope House works to maintain contact with them in order to keep pace with the changes men face and to adjust our services to meet their needs.
