Mission: Our Hope Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to guiding women to lifelong recovery from alcoholism, addiction and other mental health and emotional conditions related to those diseases. Using our experience and expertise in women-centered recovery, we provide a comprehensive continuum of services that focus on healing the whole woman, upholding her dignity and helping her build strengths and resources for a life in recovery.
Target demographics: Our Hope provides therapeutic treatment, counseling and education to guide women to recovery from alcoholism, addiction and the mental health and emotional conditions so often related to these diseases. A compassionate approach, a dignified home-like setting for treatment, and nearly 40 years of expertise in women-centered recovery make Our Hope one of the best options for women anywhere they are on their personal journeys to recovery. Our work is rooted in a legacy of caring and compassion that began in 1972. From the start, we have used a combination of our clinical expertise grounded in the 12-Step philosophy, as well as our knowledge of women's unique needs, to provide a special place for women to heal and rediscover hope.
Geographic areas served: The founding families of Our Hope purchased a gracious Victorian home in the historic Heritage Hill neighborhood of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Services have been offered in this facility ever since. It’s an environment unlike most others in the United States for this kind of treatment, acting as both a sanctuary for women in recovery and a welcoming place for families to visit.
