We currently have immediate openings with our counselors and are here to support all individuals through life’s challenges with compassion, care, and hope.

While we do suggest donations to help support our services, no one is ever turned away because of an inability to pay.

If you or someone you love is looking for support, encouragement, or a safe place to begin healing, we are here for you. You can get started by visiting us in person at 1747 N Wells St, Fort Wayne, IN 46808, calling us at (260) 420-6100, or visiting our website at hopealivefortwayne.org.

We are so grateful for residents like Misty, who has been lending a helping hand as we prepare for our Annual Gala. Misty’s willingness to serve is a beautiful reminder of that. Her strength, perseverance, and steady spirit continue to inspire us as she walks her own journey with courage and grace. Watching her give back while continuing to grow is a reflection of the hope and encouragement we strive to share every day. Thank you, Misty, for being such an important part of the Hope Alive family and for showing us what resilience and hope in action look like.

We’re also excited to invite our community to join us for our Annual Gala on September 18th from 5:30–8:30 PM at Brookside Church in Fort Wayne, IN 46835. We can’t wait to celebrate the stories, lives, and impact that make Hope Alive so special.

Mental health struggles are more common than many people realize, and the need for support here in our community is real.

• In Allen County, 1 in 4 adults report struggling with anxiety.
• Nearly 1 in 4 local youth say they have no one to talk to about depression or suicidal thoughts.
• Fort Wayne faces a 670:1 mental health provider shortage.

God never intended for us to walk through pain alone, and healing often begins when we feel safe, seen, heard, and supported. This Mental Health Awareness Month, we encourage you to check in on your loved ones, give yourself grace, and remember that seeking help is not weakness. It is is courage. There is hope, there is healing, and there are people who care.

During Mental Health Awareness Month, all of us at Hope Alive want to remind you that your mental health matters deeply. In a world that constantly tells people to “push through” and keep going no matter how heavy life feels, we want you to know that it is okay to slow down, ask for help, rest, heal, and take care of yourself!

Loving Jesus and caring for your mental health can exist together beautifully. You can have strong faith and still struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, exhaustion, or emotional pain. God is not disappointed in you for needing support. He sees every hidden hurt, every silent battle, and every weary part of your heart with compassion and love.

Sometimes healing looks like prayer, sometimes it looks like counseling, sometimes it looks like community, and often it looks like all of those things together.

You were never meant to carry life alone, and there is strength in reaching out and allowing others to walk beside you. This month and every month, we pray you give yourself the same grace, patience, and kindness that God so freely gives to you.

Sheila’s story is a beautiful reminder that God still restores even in our hardest seasons. Through counseling, community, faith, and support at Hope Alive, Sheila rebuilt her life, restored relationships with her children and grandchildren, stayed committed to her job, and was able to purchase her own car. What once felt impossible is now part of her testimony. We are so honored to walk alongside women like Sheila as God continues to heal, provide, and remind them of their incredible worth.

We are so excited to introduce the newest member of our Hope Alive team, Charica! Her heart for family, faith, and meaningful work makes her a beautiful addition to our ministry, and we invite you to join us in warmly welcoming her as we thank God for leading her here and pray that He continues to guide her steps, bless her work, and use her in powerful ways as she serves alongside our team and walks with the women and families we are called to love and support.

We’re currently in need of twin and full-size comforter sets to help make our homes feel warm, welcoming, and restful for the women and families we serve at Hope Alive. Something as simple as a cozy bed can bring comfort, dignity, and a sense of peace during a season of rebuilding. If you feel led to give, your donation would mean so much to us and the residents walking this journey. Thank you for being a part of creating safe, loving spaces!

Healing doesn’t always happen all at once, and it rarely looks perfect but it is possible when people are given the right support, the right tools, and a safe place to grow. So many individuals are carrying trauma, battling mental health challenges, and fighting addictions all at the same time, often feeling like they have to figure it out alone.

When individuals are given a safe and secure place to grow, along with trusted professionals who walk beside them day to day, real progress can begin to take root.

Her journey shows that recovery is not just about getting through the hard seasons, but about discovering that a different, healthier future is truly within reach!

God, this Monday we come to you as we are carrying our thoughts, our emotions, our questions, and even the parts of us that feel unready or unsure. We ask that You gently begin to change our hearts and renew our minds, even when growth feels uncomfortable or unfamiliar.

Step into the places inside of us that cut deep, the wounds that make us vulnerable to lies, manipulation, fear, and self-doubt, and bring Your truth, healing, and protection there. Help us recognize our worth, guard our peace, and choose thoughts that lead to life and freedom. Give us courage to trust You with the hard parts of our story and strength to keep moving forward, knowing You are always working within us, even when we can’t yet see the full picture.

In Jesus Name, Amen

Carrying emotions alone can make them feel heavier than they were ever meant to be, but healing often begins the moment we bring them into the light. When we reach out to trusted people, lean into prayer and God’s presence, or seek support through counseling and therapy, we open the door to comfort, clarity, and real restoration!

You were never meant to carry everything by yourself, and there is hope and relief waiting when you take that brave step to share your heart.
