Residential Trauma Recovery Program
Kairos Hope's Residential Trauma Recovery Program provides a structured and supportive environment for adult women who have faced the devastating effects of sexual trauma and related challenges. Our program is carefully crafted to help survivors rebuild their lives with a strong focus on healing, empowerment, and practical skills development.
Important Notice: A Program Designed for Healing and Growth
At Kairos Hope, our program is designed to be a place of healing and growth for women who have experienced sexual trauma and related challenges. Please understand that we are not a crisis shelter, homeless shelter, domestic violence shelter, or substance abuse recovery center. Our program is a commitment to personal growth and healing, rather than a temporary solution during a crisis.
To ensure the safety and effectiveness of our program, applicants are required to meet certain criteria. This includes having a history of sexual trauma, being free from illegal substances, and having a stable living arrangement until entering the program. We appreciate your understanding of these important considerations as we work together to support your journey towards healing and wholeness.
Program Highlights:
Trauma-Informed Care: Our program is grounded in the principles of trauma-informed care, ensuring that every aspect of treatment is sensitive to the experiences of survivors. This approach recognizes the profound impact of trauma and allows us to provide empathetic, evidence-based support.
Experienced and Compassionate Team: At Kairos Hope, our dedicated team comprises licensed therapists, counselors, and support with a wealth of experience in trauma recovery. They are committed to guiding residents with unwavering compassion and expertise.
Tailored Treatment Plans: Recognizing that each woman's journey is unique, we craft individualized treatment plans that reflect her specific needs, strengths, and goals. Our goal is to empower residents to take ownership of their recovery.
Supportive Community: Kairos Hope isn't just a program; it's a tightly-knit community where women can form connections, share their experiences, and find solace and empowerment through the support of others who understand their journey.
Spiritual and Emotional Healing: We integrate spiritual and emotional growth into our program, offering residents the opportunity to explore and reconnect with their faith through Bible studies and therapeutic activities that promote inner peace and strength.
Life Skills Development: Beyond trauma recovery, we equip residents with essential life skills that enable them to thrive independently. This includes comprehensive training in budgeting, job readiness, and educational opportunities.
Continuum of Care: Our commitment to care extends beyond the program's completion. We provide transitional support to help women smoothly reintegrate into their communities, equipped with newfound resilience and a renewed sense of purpose.
Eligibility
1. Trauma History: Our program is designed to support adult women who have experienced sexual trauma or related challenges.
2. Substance Use: Applicants should be free from the use of illegal substances. We maintain a substance-free environment on our premises.
3. Safe Housing: It's important to have a secure and stable living arrangement in place before entering our program. We are not an emergency shelter and do not provide immediate crisis housing.
4. Commitment to Personal Growth: Kairos Hope's program is a dedicated commitment to self-improvement and healing. It is not intended as a temporary solution during times of crisis.

Intake Review
At Kairos Hope, we understand that the journey to healing and transformation is a deeply personal and thoughtful process. Our intake process is comprehensive, and while we aim to expedite it, it can take multiple weeks to ensure that each prospective resident receives the careful attention and support they deserve. To discover valuable insights on navigating this process successfully, please refer to this guide:
How To Prepare For The Intake Process
1) Fill out the online application. Please answer each question honestly and fully. We are looking for applicants who are showing dedication to change. Therefore, those who put more time and effort into the application have a better chance of being accepted. Dishonesty will greatly harm your intake process.
2) After we receive your application, our intake coordinator will reach out to schedule a virtual interview. This interview will be done through the Zoom platform and the applicant is required to be on screen for this. In this interview, we will review the application, discuss important aspects of the program, and discuss the expectations that you will have while in the program. This is a formal interview and may be a panel of interviewers.
3) Applicants will be expected to have read the manual, which is on the application, and reviewed the "What to expect" page on our website. Doing so before the interview will help equip you for the questions. Additionally, applicants are encouraged to write down questions for their intake coordinator to discuss during the interview so that both parties have a full picture of the expectations.
4) After the interview, the applicant will be required to collect a series of paperwork. An intake decision cannot be made before all paperwork is submitted. Therefore, the intake process length is dependent on the applicant's willingness to do the legwork of collecting paperwork.
5) After the paperwork is collected, the review team will evaluate the information and decide if it is a good fit. This decision is typically made within 3-5 business days after all paperwork is submitted. Applicants will then be contacted to discuss referral options or intake details.
