Programs and results
What we aim to solve
We at House of Hope know that substance abuse, the interactive disease of alcoholism and drug addiction, can never be cured. We know that the disease can be arrested ― given time ― with an encouraging environment, educational tools, knowledgeable support groups and most importantly the woman’s sincere desire to change her life. Therefore, we continually seek to expand and improve our abilities to expand and improve our abilities to help women achieve awareness, spirituality, dignity and integrity, become financially responsible, reestablish family ties and be reunited with their children when possible. We help restore to health women who are wounded, lost and broken and return them to society with the tools they need to continue their lives of recovery.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

The treatment protocol is tailored to the individual woman. The length of stay can range from 30 to 120 days

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
The Goal of House of Hope is “to help women regain dignity and learn how to live productive lives without alcohol or other mind-altering substances”. House of Hope provides a safe, clean and sober, nurturing environment for substance abusing women.
The rules of acceptance are the same for every woman without regard to race, religion, color, nationality, origin or sexual identity.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Due to our efficient, debt-free cost structure, the House of Hope can operate at costs substantially below the more notable “28-Day” treatment facilities - About 1/6th the normal cost of treatment. The cost of our services include the cost of counselors, facilities, food, transportation, supplies and administration and includes client services of up to six hours a day of individual counseling, group treatment and 12-Step participation.
We have found in our 64 years as a treatment provider, the longer a woman can stay in treatment the better her chances of lasting recovery. That is why we offer up to 120 days of treatment for those women who require it.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Today, House of Hope operates a 72 residential bed facility co-located in seven buildings. Four of these beds are dedicated to full time resident professional staff. Twenty-four of these beds are dedicated to Inpatient Treatment Care and are licensed and certified by the California Department of Alcohol & Drug Programs (license #190025AN) to operate as an adult residential alcohol and drug abuse treatment facility for women.
The remaining forty-four (44) beds are allocated to Sober Living, Transitional living (RBH) and Alternative Sentencing facilities. These are long term clean and sober environments that enable women to go to work, school, or complete societal obligations. The women are financially responsible for their accommodations. All of the women are graduates of the Inpatient Treatment Care program and the typical length of stay is six months to two years after graduation from the Inpatient program.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
House of Hope continually seeks to expand and improve its abilities to help women achieve awareness, recovery, regain dignity and integrity, become financially responsible, reestablish family ties and be reunited with their children when possible. We help to restore to health women who have been wounded, lost and broken and return them to society with the tools they need to continue their lives of recovery.
64 years ago, alcohol was the primary addiction of women. Today prescription and designer drugs has become a major source of addiction for women combined with alcohol. House of Hope has kept pace with the ever changing market place of addiction.
