About This Cause
Hope House, Inc. is a federally recognized 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization. It received its Articles of Incorporation in November 1986 and began to serve women in May 1992. Hope House, Inc. remains to be the only licensed and accredited residential substance use and mental health facility that serves women and children in Augusta-Richmond County and its twelve surrounding counties. Our program is provided in a safe, highly supportive and structured treatment environment for women suffering from the disease of chemical addiction (alcohol and drugs). The organization strives to create sustainable change within these individuals through recovery, teaching them how to manage their disorders, increasing their awareness and education, and acquiring practicable skill sets. Hope House's ultimate goal is to help these individuals and families become self-sufficient and re-enter society. The individuals that successfully complete the program leave to become gainfully employed citizens who are self-sufficient, better parents, and able to deal with problems in constructive and healthy ways. Hope House accomplishes all of this through three main programs: Ready for Work, Therapeutic Childcare, and Supportive Housing. Hope House offers services to the most vulnerable segments of our population: those who suffer from substance use and co-existing mental health disorders, homelessness, and children who have parents with these conditions, up to the age of 13. Hope House provides a treatment program and a long-term supportive housing facility for women. There are 42 separate apartments available. There are 18 single beds in Building 1 and there are 24 two and three bedrooms in Building 2. The housing facility is known as The Highlands West. Hope House operates a 24-hour-a-day -7 days a week campus. At Hope House, we meet the women where they are while also providing encouragement and skills needed to become self-sufficient. Hope House uses an evidence-based medical model for treatment of the disease of addiction. All residents are evaluated by a psychiatrist, screened for medical conditions, and attend counseling sessions and classes. Such holistic treatment also includes the needs of the minor children and sessions with extended family members. Additionally, residents are given the opportunity to gain life skills, coping skills, education, job training, parenting and more. Once a participant completes the program, Hope House continues to provide needed support services through aftercare sessions or counseling to ensure the families continue to be successful. Hope House also connects individuals and families to community resources to ensure continued success, including Alcoholics Anonymous.
