Recovery Community Organization (RCO)
Substance use disorder often leads to isolation, and isolation often intensifies substance use disorder. Our Centers are designed to help break that cycle with peer support and resources for the recovering addict.
Unity Recovery Center
The Unity Recovery Center is a peer-run recovery facility offering non-clinical recovery support services. Involvement with the center fastens engagement, supports resiliency, open doors to service access and supports long-term recovery. Services include peer mentoring, mutual aid groups, assistance with harm reduction, help assessing and increasing recovery capital.
Recovery Drop-In Center
New Hope’s Drop-In Center provides a range of opportunities for members with mental health disorders to independently develop, operate, and participate in social, recreational, and networking activities. New Hope’s Homestead location is operated by peer specialists with personal lived experience. The center provides daily activities ranging from skill building workshops, job readiness programming and guest speakers for the community offering both insight into their personal recovery journey and community resources which may be beneficial to the program
members.
