Empowering Women to break the cycle of addiction, homelessness, and incarceration

Doors of Hope is a registered 501c3 non-profit organization

Safe, Supportive Housing and Interdependence

Our 12-month reentry and recovery program offers women the opportunity to learn and practice life skills that support sustained recovery. The program empowers women to take on greater levels of responsibility for their lives and equips them with the skills, knowledge, and support to be successful.

We support women in building and maintaining mental, spiritual, emotional, and physical health. We provide safe and supportive housing, basic needs including food, clothing, identification documents, recovery coaching, empoloyment support, medication management, legal aid, medical and dental care, transportation, and professional counseling. All of our services are delivered in a therapeutic environment by a team of trauma-informed professionals.

According to needs assessments, approximately 40% of the women set to be released from Rutherford County’s correctional facilities will be homeless or will return to an unsafe environment that will put them at high risk for relapse and recidivism. We encourage these women to apply for admission to our low barrier, safe, structured, and supportive reentry and recovery program.

Encouragement and Support

With Support, a New Beginning Can Become Lasting Change.

Women who remain in the Doors of Hope reentry program for six months or longer have a reincarceration rate of just 3%.

Behind that number are women working to build a different future, one day at a time.

Through recovery meetings, counseling, and a supportive community, women build the relationships and daily routines that help sustain sobriety. Over time, recovery becomes their new normal, creating space for stability, connection, and renewed confidence.

Every woman’s journey is her own. We walk alongside her as she faces challenges, recognizes her progress, and moves toward the life she wants to build.
