Together, we can beat relapse
Our Mission – Who We Are – What We Do
Holding Excellence Above Relapse – Together
Founded in 2011, Project HEART began with a simple yet powerful goal: to offer people in recovery a safe and supportive circle of genuine friendship. What started as a small collaboration between individuals in recovery and local service agencies has grown into a trusted, community-based recovery program rooted in peer mentorship and relational healing.
Today, we recognize something else is true: when one person begins to rebuild, families feel it, especially children who depend on stability at home. That’s why our work is designed to strengthen not only the individual, but the relationships and responsibilities that surround them.
Our Mission
To provide a safe, supportive environment for individuals and families navigating life’s most destabilizing challenges.
What We Do
Project HEART provides a consistent, safe, and uplifting environment where people can reconnect with themselves, others, and their purpose. Our core objective is to surround each individual with a true community of friends, people who lead by example and support each other through recovery, growth, and daily accountability.
As individuals build stability, the ripple effect reaches far beyond the meeting room. Many of our members are working to restore trust, rebuild healthy routines, and show up more consistently for the people they love. This is how Project HEART supports families: by helping parents, caregivers, and loved ones strengthen the foundation of a healthier home.
We focus on:
- Peer mentorship that fosters accountability and encouragement
- Group meetings and special events that reinforce connection and healing
- Community service that builds dignity and responsibility
- Team-based support to walk with individuals as they rebuild their lives
Our approach is grounded in morality, ethics, legality, and most of all, authentic friendship.
Resources & Referrals
We recognize that healing is multi-faceted. That’s why we maintain an up-to-date list of trusted professional partners for referrals in:
- Substance abuse treatment
- Marriage and family counseling
- Anger management
- Financial coaching
- Job readiness and employment support
When someone joins Project HEART, they’re not alone, they’re connected to a network of people and services committed to their success. And when that person is a parent or caregiver, this support can help create more stability and safety for the entire household.
Peer Mentorship in Action
Our men’s and women’s teams provide outreach and one-on-one support, helping individuals rebuild broken relationships, restore dignity, and develop the life skills necessary for long-term stability. Whether you’re emerging from addiction, incarceration, or another life-damaging experience, we’re here to walk with you, step-by-step.
For many, that step-by-step progress becomes the turning point that helps them re-engage with family responsibilities and rebuild trust at home. When a person gains stability, children and loved ones often gain something too: a healthier relationship, a safer environment, and a stronger future.
Stronger individuals. Stronger families. Safer communities.
