Sober living for vulnerable populations in rural communities.DeMalia’s House of Hope is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting Connecticut's most vulnerable populations suffering from mental illness or an addiction. The organization serves communities such as our veterans and elders, the disabled, minorities, and those experiencing homelessness. The organization’s approach is rooted in two core evidence-based practices: Trauma-Informed Care and Cultural Competency. Through the application of the Strategic Prevention Framework, DeMalia’s House of Hope customizes its programming to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring both effectiveness and long-term sustainability. This is accomplished by providing housing, food, and education to these populations to reduce the suicide and overdose rates in the state.
