Currently, Helping Hands from the Heart is a men’s only facility. However, we recognize the importance of providing recovery and transitional living opportunities for women as well. An all-women’s facility is in our future plans, and we are working toward expanding our services to meet this need.

Turning Trials into Testimonies
“I’ve been apart of Helping Hands care ministry for 6 years now! Prior to joining the program I lived a life of chaos, disorder, and with no hope of what my future looked like. Throughout my journey with Helping Hands I’ve finally realized what my future looks like, and what God has in store for me! I am so thankful for Helping Hands and their staff for allowing me to become apart of their family and to actually have a place that I can call home.
God truly works in mysterious way!!.”

“I went through Pastor Rick Casey's program "Helping Hands Care Ministry" for 2 years he got me closer to God and took me off the streets and kept me out of jail. Also provided a family oriented positive environment. Allowing me to work and have a place to come home to. He and the staff do whatever they can to help someone who really needs it.”
Chad Boals
“I have tried several sober living facilities in my 11 year journey to become sober, as someone identified as an addict, I was offered a chance to join Helping Hands Care ministry. Currently I’m 30 days sober and I would not be here without the way Helping Hands conducts its program. N/A 7 days a week, Church and people who really do care. People that truly have a heart and desire to help me succeed and with that I will be a success on my journey of recovery.”
