Women play many roles, which means alcoholism and addiction affect them and those who love them on many levels. It’s likely that your loved one’s alcoholism or addiction has affected her ability to be the wife, mother, daughter, professional or partner she wants to be. Watching this unfold can be painful for you, your family and friends.

More than anything, we want you to know that change is possible, hope is real, and the woman you love can build the tools to reach her potential. Guiding women on this journey to recovery has been our passion and purpose since 1972.

Why choose Our Hope?

Compassionate women-centered approach

Using our clinical expertise in women-centered recovery and grounded in the 12-Step philosophy, we offer a compassionate approach to recovery. We focus on healing the whole woman, because we know that recovery is most successful when a woman’s emotional, physical, spiritual and social needs and strengths are acknowledged.

Clinical expertise

Our Hope was founded in 1972, during a time when few people talked about alcoholism and addiction, especially among women. Over nearly 40 years, we have become a leader in guiding women to recovery. Our all-female team is highly qualified, with all clinicians being Master's Level Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselors licensed in substance abuse and mental health therapy.

We have also achieved top ratings from the Center for Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, with 3-Year Accreditation awarded by this important organization once again in December 2011.

A dignified place to do difficult work

Our work happens in a surprisingly non-institutional setting: a gracious home hidden away in a historic West Michigan neighborhood. This is an inviting space where women participate in a variety of programs, including Residential and Intensive Outpatient Treatment, individual and group therapy, Acupuncture Detoxification Therapy and more.

While this space is valuable for women experiencing recovery, it is just as important for loved ones like you. It provides a safe and comfortable setting for families, especially children, to visit and be part of the healing process.

Excellent value

Compared to similar programs, Our Hope is one of the most cost-effective options for your loved one.  While all of our services are priced at or below those of other facilities in the U.S., we are always willing to work with you to find a way to make treatment at Our Hope affordable.  For example, thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have established a special Financial Assistance Fund to which any woman may apply to potentially defray some of the costs of Residential or Intensive Outpatient Treatment based on demonstrated financial need.  Please contact our office by phone at 616-451-2039 or online by clicking here to discuss our services and payment options.
