We understand that individuals released from prison or rehab often have limited resources. That’s why we can cover the program costs for indigent clients. Once a client is employed and receives their first paycheck (usually around week 5 or 6), the cost is $150 per week. This includes all expenses, from toothpaste to transportation.

Everyone’s needs are different, but the program is designed to last 12 months. This duration allows time to establish a good recovery program (a year’s sobriety), achieve financial stability, and meet other essential goals for the client’s success. We also adhere to court orders for individuals under furlough. Typically, the stay duration ranges from 8 to 12 months. Statistically, individuals who complete at least 12 months in the program exhibit greater success and significantly lower recidivism rates.

Rooms are set up for two clients to share, with approximately 5-10 people per house, depending on the specific location.

Doors of Hope offers safe transportation services through staff or volunteer drivers who can take clients to work, appointments, probation meetings, the grocery store, and other essential places. We also provide Rover tickets and encourage clients to utilize public transportation whenever it is feasible.

Visits to and from family are allowed as long as they are safe, approved, and scheduled with the housing director. Family members are not allowed inside any of the residences. Family members must provide a valid driver’s license if you will be riding with them. Our top priority is to ensure your safety and sobriety.
