I wanted to donate to this organization. I called and the woman who answered was so rude. First she answered the phone by saying -what ! I asked if this was the hope house , in a non apologetic tone she said yes and went silent. I said forget it I was going to donate to your organization i will find another organization to donate. .

This place and the staff are great. Its rehab, its not going to be fun any where you go, especially a medi cal FREE rehab. Anyone that complains about this place just isn't ready to do whatever it takes to get clean. I used for 20+ years everyday and said I would never go to inpatient, I went to hope house and it was the best thing that ever happened to me. Follow the rules and you'll be fine. I was discouraged to even go there with some reviews online, I tried so hard not to and to go some where else but I am so glad I came here and will be graduating their after care program to graduate "off the bench." Thank you to all staff, you guys are great! Especially Anthwan, he deserves a raise for sure!

Absolutely horrible staff on the phone. Called to inquire about making a therapy appointment since the therapist’s contact information was listed as this place and the guy who answered the phone was extremely rude and hung up the phone in the middle of the conversation. He never explained this was a rehab center and not a counseling agency. Worst customer service experience and lack of professionalism. Do not recommend!!

Terrible, crazy place! I was there in March 2008, for about 10 weeks. While some of it is good and helpful, much is ridiculous. I went on to better programs. Doing well now and clean for 14+ years! Check out Phoenix House for a much better program. TY! =^..^=

It was an awful experience, had seen people that were genuinely kind be put on "timeout" for petty reasons. only things that made it better were miss D, Janet and SOME of the other clients ?

This is the worst rehab I've ever been to. They kick people out left and right for d*** reasons. In my case, I got kicked out because a parolee started a fight with me and I stood my ground. They only kicked me out even though the other guy instigated everything. The staff clearly doesn't care about anyone's recovery, they're just happy to collect that insurance money. The groups are awful, the staff treats you like a child, and there are more rules and restrictions than a jail. Easily my pick for the worst rehab of all time, and I've been in several.

Hope House is a structured program for people that are READY and open to change, not for people looking for a place to stay short term without having to do the hard work! Absorbing the education and tools provided during this stay is crucial to recovery. The rules that are enforced are there for a reason but most clients (including those enabling family members) don't understand them. Fact is: rules need to be applied everywhere and Hope House is trying to keep a safe environment to be able to teach clients this life skill. Hope House offers an opportunity to heal, you can nitpick all you want, this generation is KNOWN for that, but you have to give credit where it's owned, this is an awesome program that's been around for over 40 years, the experience and passion to help people reach sobriety is there! Don't blame them for you throwing in the towel!

They refuse to make dr.'s appointments for you and they won't let you call anywhere until after business hours. If you take medications or are in bad health, this isn't the place for you.

Where to even begin? Let me start of by telling you this house saved my life. I am forever grateful to this house and the many great counselors I met along the way. Some folks will have nothing good to say about it because they still expected to get their way and be able to do and act the same way they acted while in addiction. The Behavioral modification aspect made sense. Drugs weren't the problem so much as the behaviors that led up to it. The concepts made you get to the root of said behaviors and the open share and feedback method helped you see some of them. The bench was there to make ya pause and think about the mistakes you made and how to move forward. The activities helped you relive and process some of the things that happened to you and made you behave a certain way. The 1 on 1 counseling helped you process some of the more deeper stuff you couldn't talk about with the group. Some of the counselors really want to see you succeed and it was nice to feel as though these strangers actually cared about your well being. I don't care what anyone says about the hope house and it's structure but this place saved my life. Almost a year sober and I'm still using some of the tools I took from this place. Thank you hope house staff and all the gentlemen I had the pleasure of meeting here. It works if you really work it.

Ok. I was down for treatment. They ran multiple groups through out the day. Cool. But.... this a client based program. Clients do all the work. Cook, clean, do special projects. Etc. ok so that's not the worst. I was left alone in a all girl bunker. That is not ok. No one should be alone that houses 6-10 ppl. Not ok. I had to request special permission from the owner to have someone with me. Smh. No one is there to help. At all. I needed to talk to someone and they wouldn't give me anyone. But yet they called the police on me and I ended up in the hospital. They are NOT mentally prepared for us. Then after my hospital stay I requested my mom to get my stuff. They allowed my roommate to do so! Items were stolen.im a good girl btw. Don't do anything wrong. Yet I was in trouble on the bench almost everyday. Why?? Mostly cause I didn't raise my hand during feedback. For someone who has social problems this just wasn't happening. So I got benched. Like a 2nd grader. Wtf. The program could be ran better. With more therapists. And ppl to help. Oh and I one time had a doc appt. my mom came to pick me up and the doc told me the location changed. I had to check in somewhere else. So I did. When I come back Mike wasn't having it. He said I was wrong and that I would have to do 8 hrs of writing for lying. Wtf?? So pls...no...no....no...no. Do not come here

Learned a lot at Hope House about distortions and self esteem. I could say I was just drying up but I could also say that I sat and listened and learned a lot during a crucial time ty HH.
