Wings of Hope Recovery: Growth, Momentum, and a Future Brighter Than Ever
There are moments in the life of an organization when everything seems to click into place, when the mission feels sharper, the work feels deeper, and the impact expands beyond anything you imagined at the beginning. Wings of Hope Recovery is in one of those moments right now, and the energy across our houses, our teams, and our community partners is nothing short of electric.
A New Partnership That Truly Changes Lives
We are thrilled to announce our newest collaboration with Ability Beyond, bringing comprehensive employment services directly to our house members. For so many individuals in recovery, meaningful employment is the bridge between surviving and thriving.
Through this partnership, residents now have access to:
Career coaching and vocational assessments
Interview and résumé support
Job placement assistance with community employers
Workforce development resources designed for long term stability
This relationship feels like the perfect extension of our mission to empower people not just to rebuild their lives, but to elevate them.

Wings of Hope Recovery continues its steady and intentional growth, now expanding further into Hartford County and surrounding regions.
With new properties coming online and several more in the acquisition pipeline, we remain committed to:
Safe, beautiful, professionally managed recovery housing
Community integration with local service providers
High quality environments that support real transformation
The momentum is real and it is only accelerating.
