"Hope reinforces recovery-our acronym Hope; H represents Healing, the first step to recovery: O represent Opportunity, we are a resource to provide opportunities and support for recovery: P represents Potential, when people are given the support, they see their innate potential; E represents Empowerment, when a person sees the opportunity and believes in their potential, they become empowered and believe in themselves: that is Hope to me."
