Intake & Moving In

Intake Process

  • Potential Resident and/or Referent should call the HOPE Recovery office at (678) 556-0840 or (877) 355-1141. Office hours are 9 am to 5 pm Monday – Friday.
  • After speaking with the office, the potential resident will complete a pre-screen interview with the HOPE Recovery staff member. The pre-screen generally takes between 30-60 minutes.
  • The potential resident will then interview with the current residents in his or her prospective HOPE Recovery community. In addition to answering the questions of current residents, the potential resident will be given time to ask questions about life at HOPE Recovery. The interview generally takes between 10 to 20 minutes. It is preferably done in person but can be done over the phone.

Questions a potential resident might be asked:

  • Why do want to live in a HOPE Recovery Residence?
  • Are you willing to go to 90 recovery support meetings in 90 days?
  • Are you willing to get a sponsor or mentor?
  • What do you feel that you can contribute to the HOPE community?
