ABOUT RUTH’S HOUSE OF HOPE
Located in Oroville, Wash., about five miles south of the Canadian border, Ruth’s House of Hope (RHOH) is a faith-based “place of refuge” for women seeking recovery from drugs and alcohol. The one-year program helps women develop and maintain healthy and lasting life changes through daily discipleship, rehabilitative programming, and transitional housing.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
Women enrolled at RHOH must commit to staying and participating in treatment for 12 months. According to the program’s website, women are required to attend a variety of discipleship courses, ranging from the practical (“Anger and Unforgiveness”) to the motivational and inspirational (“Purpose and Passion”).
They’ll also forge new and healthy relationships with one another, attending a non-denominational church nearby.
STAFF CREDENTIALS
Ruth’s House of Hope is founded and directed by a woman whose life was once “bound by cocaine and alcohol.” A mother of two children and experienced educator, she started the program to reach others searching for a new life.
There’s also a house supervisor on staff, though further details are not provided.
ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES
Pictures published on RHOH’s website depict a two-floor, lodge-like home surrounded by hills and a lake. All women have access to RHOH’s audio library.
