Through love, support and acceptance, parents and youth can find an end to isolation and fear and discover a life of hope and freedom.

Substance Abuse Family Support utilizing Alternative Peer Groups, Support Groups, Family and Individual Counseling, Weekly Peer Group activities and events for Drugs, Alcohol, cutting and other self-destructive actions. A Light of Hope (ALOH) is a support program for youth and young adults 14-26 years of age and their families struggling with substance abuse issues and any self destructive actions and behaviors. We offer groups and programs to assist in personal and family recovery utilizing support groups combined with an Alternative Peer Group (APG) support system. In support meetings parents can learn new ways of reacting to their substance abusing and/or self-destructive teenagers or young adults. Many parents transform their own lives as well in this process. The young people's support meetings focus on pertinent topics that challenge old ineffective ways of thinking and coping. We emphasize the exploration and development of new tools and new coping skills based upon the 12-Step model of recovery. It is a huge relief not to feel alone or isolated. Listening and feeling understood is a bridge to becoming open and empowered to make better choices for themselves. In working together, the group can offer solutions to common problems and build a greater understanding and awareness of recovery from the effects of substance abuse and/or other self-destructive actions and behaviors. We emphasize the development and maintenance of an Alternative Peer Group (APG) support system providing a safe, sober yet fun and welcoming experience for young people and their families as an alternative to the dysfunctional and destructive environment they may be involved in.

This Giving Tuesday, you have the power to change a life.

Every day, teens and young adults in our community are struggling—not just with substances, but with deep pain, anxiety, and self-destructive behaviors that can leave them feeling lost and alone. At A Light of Hope, we walk beside them on their journey toward healing, providing the structure, support, and love they need to rediscover hope and purpose.

Through mentoring, peer support, and recovery groups, we’re helping youth build resilience and reclaim their futures. Our Alternative Peer Group (APG) model shows them they can laugh and have fun, without mind-altering substances. These outings also help build fellowship and trust among the participants.

But we can’t do this without you.

In this season of gratitude, your generosity makes transformation possible. Your Giving Tuesday or Yearend gift will help us continue to provide safe spaces for youth to connect and recover together.

Thank it for standing with us to invest in the lives of young people!

With gratitude,
A Light of Hope

What’s scarier than Halloween?

Whether it’s a horror movie or Fright Fest at Six Flags Magic Mountain, we often seek out thrills that make our hearts race—because we know they’re not real.

But what’s truly frightening? Parenting a teenager who’s struggling with substance abuse, self-destructive behavior, or mental health challenges. That kind of fear is real. It can feel overwhelming, isolating, and relentless.

At A Light of Hope, we understand. That’s why we offer free Parent Support Groups, held at the same time—and in the same location—as our Youth Groups. In these rooms, surrounded by other parents who “get it,” you’ll find shared understanding, zero judgment, and real tools to help you navigate this difficult path.

If you’re parenting a teenager who’s struggling or young adult facing these challenges, you don’t have to do it alone. Come sit with us.
You’ll find love, encouragement, and a community ready to support you—wherever you are on this journey.

A Light of Hope is solely funded by donations. Please consider joining us in the fight to create a better future for those struggling in our community by making a one-time or monthly donation.

Thank you from the A Light of Hope family!

Be the Light 5k/10k SUCCESS!

Hope and purpose! Darren Brewster (A Light of Hope Youth Leader) and his beautiful family are shown here, enjoying the light tunnels at Be the Light on September 20, 2025.

On behalf of our entire team, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks for your support of our recent 5k/10k event benefiting youth in recovery. Because of your generosity and involvement, we were able to raise vital funds and awareness to support young people on their journey toward healing and hope.

Whether you sponsored, volunteered, participated, or simply cheered from the sidelines, your contribution made a real difference. Your support for Be the Light sends a powerful message to our A Light of Hope youth: that they are seen, valued and not alone.

Together, we are building a stronger, more compassionate community—and we couldn’t do it without you. Please consider partnering with us by setting up a monthly donation of any amount to A Light of Hope through our website at alightofhopescv.org.

Thank you again!

A Light of Hope is a 12-step support group which is based on participants seeking their Higher Power and surrendering their lives to Him as a basis for recovery. It offers peer support groups for youth ages 14-26 who seek to overcome self-destructive behaviors like substance abuse, self-harm, and eating disorders.

We meet twice a week, and the youth attend “Alternative Peer Group” outings once a month. These outings are intended to provide a safe, sober, yet fun and welcoming experience as an alternative to the dysfunctional and destructive environment they may have been involved in.

Parents can attend their own support group that meets separately at the same time as the youth. All parents or loved ones are encouraged to come to learn and grow with others who have walked the same path.

A Light of Hope is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization that is the only free resource provided of its kind in Santa Clarita. Although this is free to all who come, there are many behind the scenes expenses that we rely solely on financial partners to continue.
Please partner with us financially by giving an either a one time gift or a monthly donation so we can continue to help youth and parents break the chains of addiction and live a life of serenity and freedom.

Our Year End Giving goal is $10,000.
Please consider supporting A Light of Hope with your donation and help change a life. If you are already supporting us, thank you for your continued investment.
