Editorial Review

<p><strong>ABOUT METRO HOPE RECOVERY MINISTRIES</strong></p> <p>Metro Hope Recovery Ministries in Minneapolis, Minn., provides <strong>faith-based, gender-specific, residential care</strong> for individuals struggling with substance abuse. The facility's website presents a strongly religious approach to treatment and notes that many clients are experiencing financial and legal challenges. Residents come from the Twin Cities area and across the country. Metro Hope is a nonprofit organization founded in 1926.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Metro Hope operates two long-term residential facilities, a <strong>five- to seven-month men's program</strong> at New Hope Center and a <strong>seven- to 12-month stay for women</strong> at Healing House. The treatment philosophy and curriculum rely heavily on <strong>Christian teachings and 12-step concepts.</strong></p> <p>Men begin their treatment with a trial residence of about a week that is focused on assessing the fit of each individual with the program's practices and rules. This is followed by a month of continued assessment during which residents attend chapel and educational sessions and <strong>participate in work therapy</strong>. Remaining weeks prioritize a healing process and developing skills for successful life in recovery. Throughout, clients receive Christian counseling and support for finding full-time jobs after completing the program.</p> <p>Similarly, the women's program incorporates Christian therapy and life skills training, as well as assisting with transition into independent living, work, and school. According to the facility's website, Healing House is not a licensed treatment facility, but is a long-term recovery program with treatment grounded in Biblical principles. On-site child development services are provided. </p> <p>Several specialized topics are covered and additional services are available, including <strong>parenting classes</strong> or groups for women and men, character development, <strong>trauma recovery</strong>, peer mentorship, and smoking cessation. The website also references treatment for <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">co-occurring addiction</a> and mental health disorders.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>The treatment staff includes case managers, a master's level therapist, and a registered nurse.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Photos of both the men’s 53-bed and women’s 20-bed facilities depict <strong>small, shared bedrooms</strong> that are simply furnished, as well as modest common areas. The women's home also has space for 24 children who live with their mothers. </p> <p>Residents have access to <strong>exercise equipment, libraries, and on-site chapels</strong>. The men’s home includes a billiards table. New Hope Center's current location opened in 1996 and Healing House in 2006.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>Rehabs.com has not yet received reviews from this facility’s alumni, but reviews submitted to Metro Hope’s Facebook page, which the staff manages, were <strong>all positive</strong>, generating an average 4.8 stars from 32 reviewers.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> Google also had two ratings for Metro Hope, of three and five stars out of five, with no written comments.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small></p> <p>At the time of this writing, the center’s Facebook page revealed highly positive feedback from a mix of alumni, loved ones, and staff. <strong>Trends included descriptions of the program as life-saving and the staff as caring and understanding.</strong> Reviewers commented on their experience of hope and what they learned. “My journey there was excellent, the staff loves men and came from places where we came from so they can relate to a lot of different situations," Joshua wrote in a representative review. Those who mentioned the facility's religious focus did so favorably.</p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>To date, Rehabs.com has received a singular review from a loved one affiliated with this facility. Joseph indicated that he would recommend the program to others. “Programs treat the whole person, not just the addiction. Patients learn to strengthen their spiritual life as well as coping and defeating their addiction, depression, lack of purpose, and self esteem,” he wrote.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Treatment costs begin at $500 a month, and financial assistance is available. The facility’s website also states that no individual will be turned away due to their inability to pay.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/metrohope/reviews/?ref=page_internal" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pg/metrohope/reviews/?ref=page_internal</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://goo.gl/awV8mg" target="_blank">https://goo.gl/awV8mg</a></small></p>
