| It has always been the mission of those who helped to develop Homes for Hope, Inc. to establish an organization that was fueled by passion and the love of helping others. After many attempts this was accomplished with sheer will and determination. Our first goal was to develop a program that first ended the acceptance of homelessness and steered the individual towards the goals of self reliance, self sufficiency and productivity. This would entail the institution of a multi- dimensional program of supportive services and three tier housing development... |

| would need creative resources for funding and negotiating services that would minimally affect the clients and promote company growth and perpetuation. With this idea as a back drop, it became increasingly clear that the mission of this organization would start with housing. |

| The Homes for Hope, Inc.'s program is based on a three step principle to successfully re-acclimate clients into society. Patients are identified who have been chronically homeless and/or who have successfully completed a program of detoxification and are ready to transition to the Step One facility. This is the beginning a twenty-four (24) month period of transition to tenant based supportive housing. The Step One program is an extension of the ninety (90) to one hundred and eighty (180) day traditional de-tox program with intensive emphasis on retraining and reeducating clients for skills development to seek jobs or higher training. There, in single room occupancy quarters, supportive services are initiated for continued self growth and continued sobriety. The foundations for life skills are stressed with ongoing primary medical care. Case management with accompanying services such as mental health therapy, recovering substance abuse support groups and pastoral counseling are available. During each day, clients will follow the intensive supportive individualized program developed as a part of the rehabilitative assessment done on program entry. Life skills building will be a part of the daily program for all clients. Clients will be fed two meals a day with accessibility to nutritional snacks and water throughout the day. Meals will be in common areas and generally as a group |
