Hope House, Inc. is a residential treatment facility that serves women 18 years and older who suffer from the disease of substance abuse and co-occurring mental health disorders.  Hope House serves three populations of women: homeless single women, pregnant women, and women with children, many who are seeking to regain custody of their children.

 

News! Hope House is now a United Way agency.  We are proud to be associated with the United Way of the CSRA, Inc. and look forward to a long partnership with them. Read all about it on the United Way website or in the Augusta Chronicle.

Your donation helps us reunite families, ensure drug-free births, restore women to self-sufficiency, and save lives.  We've had nine healthy births, reunited 15 families, have 18 women in school or employed and have provided housing and services to 65 families.  With your help we can do even more in the New Year!

In-kind donations of clothing require that we sort and store these items.  Currently our clothing closet is full and we have a moratorium on clothing donations.  As the Salvation Army partners with us, providing our families with clothing vouchers as needed, we urge our supporters to donate there.  We appreciate your understanding!

Infants and Toddlers and Tots, Oh My!

March 8, 2012

At any given time, Hope House is home to up to 25 children, 13 of which are currently under the age of 5 and who daily inhabit our Therapeutic Childcare Center (TCC), learning to walk, to read, to finger-paint, to share, to play - in short, to be children. Due to family circumstances, many have come from chaotic backgrounds and have had to assume more responsibility than they should. In the TCC they can reclaim their childhoods.

Recently, our wonderful TCC staff and volunteers noted the need of a dedicated area for our toddlers. Unlike the older tots, our infants and toddlers need lots of padding and scaled-down floor toys. Two sets of twins also require special buggies for outings and fire drills. Our rag-tag collection of VCR tapes needed replacing and a new television and DVD player was needed for our older children. Once again the community has helped. The Augusta Junior League, the Harison-Creel Foundation and the Knox Foundation have all contributed to the needs of the TCC. Here are just a few things their support has enabled us to provide for our children.

Thank You!
