(Yes) Between our 3rd & 4th years in street outreach and ministry God opened the door for us to become a 501(c)3 We accept most donations and yes, these are tax deductible. Go to our webpage for more information and ways to support.

Hint: (THE HOPE HOUSE)
(No) Hood Church is an Outreach Ministry that focuses on meeting the lost & broken at any level. However we do have an Aftercare home called The Hope House at 24 Arthur street in our community. The Hope House Aftercare is a faith-based opportunity house for men who are seeking a faith centered option to recovery.
Well, we at Hood Church look at mental health, and addiction from a spiritual lens. We know that a great deal of mental issues like anxiety, depression, and the like stem from a wounded soul, and this kind of wound can’t be healed by medication alone, we believe that only Jesus heals and restores the human soul. -Psalm 23:3
(Yes) We are the boots on the ground for the body of Christ. Our fellowship and partnership consists of friends who worship in different church buildings in our community, However we come together as Hood Church to reach the streets for Christ. Our pulpit is the sidewalk and our members are the homeless, the addicts, the local street drunkards, dope dealers and prostitutes. We are known for going under the bridges and for visiting homeless encampments.
We bring the church to the streets via outreach events, & constant community engagements.
The Hope House is a 12-18 month aftercare opportunity home for men, ran by the guys who live in the home.
We aim to create a safety net for the men coming out of The Haven of Rest LRP Program or any other recovery program in our community.
Our goal is to help men survive the first- year out of treatment without relapse.
Our objective is to bring hope to the men in our community who are seeking a long-term faith-based recovery option.
Statistics show that relapse rates for substance abuse disorders are estimated to be between 40% and 60% National Institute on Drug Abuse. (2018). Aftercare has never been more important to the recovery process of men in the city of Battle Creek. The more we come to understand addiction and recovery, the more we see that men who have had prolonged drug use struggle to maintain their sobriety during the first year out of treatment In addition it is estimated that within the first year of recovery relapse rates can increase as high as 85% Behavioral Health of the Palm Beaches, Inc. (BHOPB).
Issues with family, economic hardship, inability to resist temptation, and break patterns and stigmas are very real obstacles that these men face once they leave a residential treatment program. This impedes their ability to reintegrate into society and they often relapse as a result.
Unfortunately, a great deal of these men in our community who are struggling with alcohol and drug abuse come from broken and fatherless homes, hence they are already at a high risk of homelessness, behavior disorders, chemical dependency, criminal activity, suicide, and chronic depression. All of these coupled with the lack of coping skills can result in self-medicating, keeping most of these men in a never-ending relapse cycle.
