II. Purpose and Background

Hope House, Inc. is a treatment facility for women living with a Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and/or mental health disorders. Hope House strives to instill self-sufficiency in individuals and families through comprehensive treatment to end the cycle of substance misuse, untreated mental illness, and poverty. Hope House is the only treatment facility in Georgia within a thirteen-county radius that provides residential and supportive services to the children of these women, while they are in treatment. In doing so, the organization aims to fulfill its mission of providing comprehensive rehabilitative services to the entire family. The organization strives to create sustainable change within these families through recovery-focused behavioral health counseling, teaching women to manage their disorders through adopting healthy coping skills, increasing each woman’s drug awareness and education, and teaching each woman soft skills needed to obtain gainful employment. Hope House’s ultimate goal is to help each woman become self-sufficient and re-enter society as a productive citizen.

Hope House, Inc. is requesting proposals to build a family center on campus by renovating an existing 20 by 40 foot open air pavilion. The proposal shall also include the cost to renovate our front lobby and welcome area. This area will need new lighting, a new door installation and some small renovations to create more space. This area is approximately 134 square feet.  The family center would need plumbing for handwashing and some electrical work to install electrical outlets as well as a separate heating and air conditioning unit.
