What We Are Not

Residential Alcohol & Drug Rehabilitation

Bridges of Hope is an alternative program... not a recovery center in the traditional sense... medical, psychiatric and professional counseling services are not automatically available to residents.
Insurance companies will not pay for our services.
Bridges of Hope is not a state-funded facility. We operate and cover expenses solely on charitable contributions and donations from companies and foundations which are tax-deductible.
Bridges of Hope cannot accept anyone in need of detoxification (but we may be able to refer such a person to a qualified medical facility).
Bridges of Hope does not accept individuals with so-called dual-diagnoses, or those with a history of violence.
Bridges of Hope does not currently offer services for adolescents. And although we accept men (and adult women at the Morven facility) from late teenage on up, we have limited capacity for teenage males.
Bridges of Hope is not a 'half-way' house... residents are required to commit to full-time residency.
Bridges of Hope is a working facility, meaning residents physical condition should be fair to good in order to contribute through at least moderate on-site work activities on a daily basis.
Although the Bridges of Hope subscribes to the spiritual program and principles of Alcoholics Anonymous, we are not affiliated with any specific religious organization. The program is open to those of any religious orientation.
