We accept interns and volunteers.
At Homes of Personal Enrichment & Sobriety Services (H.O.P.E.S.S.), we strive to teach as many people as we can to help those who struggle the most. We believe the more people who are trained to help others, the more we can accomplish our mission of lowering drug addiction and treating uncontrolled mental health issues.
