About this Recovery House

A Women's Sober House on Otter Street
H.O.P.E.E House accepts women twenty-five and older, and it keeps the household small enough that residents know each other well within the first few weeks. Bristol sits along the Delaware River in lower Bucks County, close enough to Philadelphia for work and outpatient care.
A Three-Stage Recovery Curriculum
The program moves residents through three stages, each built around a thirty-day block: addiction education first, then socialization and motivation, then career and skill training. The structure gives residents a clear sense of where they stand at each point along the way.
Career Support Through Career Link
H.O.P.E.E House partners with Career Link on resume writing, interview preparation and job search support, which lines up directly with the final stage of its curriculum. A woman finishing the program leaves with sober housing behind her and a concrete next step toward work.
A Faith-Optional Track Through Spirit First
The Spirit First program lets residents choose between a traditional recovery track and a Christian-based one, including church involvement and one-on-one Christian mentoring for those who want it. Nobody is required to take the faith-based track to live at the house.

Mission Statement
H.O.P.E.E. House is a sober house that will empower women who have suffered through addiction to endure the recovery process and bridge their past into a new lifestyle of sober living clean and wholesome.
In an atmosphere of love and acceptance, the disease of addiction will begin to lose grip on a woman's life; and, freedom with a feeling of wholeness begins to transform the perception of self. During the residency at H.O.P.E.E. House we will lovingly break through the barriers which keep the women feeling alone and isolated. Thus, she will return to the community living life with a new purpose empowered. Each woman will begin to develop the tools necessary to continue her journey through recovery and a new lifestyle by implementing a 12 Step Program and the use of support groups.
