About Us

As a family, we struggled through a season of life when our son Joshua started his journey with substance use disorder. After understanding that families need support to, we started attending Family Support meetings as participants. After regaining control of our lives, God placed it on our hearts to begin helping other families in a way that would provide HOPE (Helping Others find Peace and Encouragement) to them while in the midst of their loved ones’ life-controlling struggles.

We are a Christ-centered organization that provides support for people who are looking for a safe, confidential environment, where they can listen and participate in discussions about how to manage their life, while striving to support our loved ones in healthy ways.

We strive to grow our personal relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who is the only one who can totally heal us and our loved ones.

We learn how to take care of ourselves during our RECOVERY, while also learning how to properly support our loved ones. We share experiences, methods and tools to help ourselves find peace and healing.

We are currently travelling within the United States and to Central American countries providing training to Teen Challenge facility leaders on how to conduct and facilitate Family Support meetings.

We are also involved with facilitating in-person and online Family Support meetings.

• Do you have a loved one that is suffering from substance use disorder or any other type of life-controlling struggles?
• Are you trying to support your loved one, but feeling anxious, stressed out, and exhausted?
• Do you feel isolated and alone or believe that there is nowhere to turn? Or,
• Maybe you think that there is no one whom you can talk to or understand your family situation. 

Let Family HOPE International - Family Support help you find local resources, facilitator training or join our on-line community of Family Support.
