Our Mission House of Hope is a non-denominational, non-profit 501(c) 3 established to reconcile teens with their parents through counseling, education, love and most importantly prayer. House of Hope believes in the holistic approach to educating and raising our teens. We have divided our program into four segments to give them the education and healing they need. Residential Program Residential Program: House of Hope provides teenage girls and boys ages 13 to 17; a Christ centered refuge from a life of degradation and exploitation. Through Christian counseling, education, and spiritual guidance administered in a loving, home-style environment, efforts are made to heal the hurt of the teen, as well as their family and where possible affect family reconciliation.
The ultimate goal is to prepare troubled teenagers to become productive members of society. House of Hope's residential program includes instruction in living skills. As a starting point, each resident is assigned specific household duties and chores. Responsibility is earned and tested through a 30 day orientation and three-phase program which rewards performance and the attitude of the resident during their 12-18 month stay. Counseling: Troubled teenagers are usually unable to respond properly to authority figures and cannot relate constructively to peers. To deal with these problems, House of Hope provides a loving, stable family environment in which residents are expected to accept responsibility, submit to authority and relate effectively to peers and adults. This is accomplished through intensive group, family and individual counseling, and strong spiritual guidance designed to heal fractured family relationships. We provide a staff of professional and pastoral counselors. Extra Curricular Activities: The Hope Academy: Each student attends our on-campus Learning Center, which features the Accelerated Christian Educational (ACE) program. The ACE program offers a high school diploma with transferable credits. Upon arrival, each student is given a diagnostic test which determines an appropriate placement level in each course. An individualized educational program is then designed for each student, allowing them to progress at their own pace. Most students, because of behavioral problems, poor attendance, and lack of motivation are behind in their regular grade level when they come to House of Hope. In our program, they quickly make up courses and achieve their academic level. DONATE TO HOUSE OF HOPE ORLANDO
