our story

 The RHP was founded on the ideal, that everyone needs hope.  Hope gives us the motivation to make changes that are vital to have a life worth living.  Our thought was to work with those that need it most in our community, the members of our community that are in recovery and reentry.  We believe that no one is beyond helping.  We carefully work with our clients to rebuild their sense of worth and self esteem.  In the end we want them to know they are worthy of all good things in life and we are here to help them get there. 

We are here to help our clients hold on to hope

 

"Man can live about forty days without food,

about three days without water,

about eight minutes without air,

but only for one second without hope"
