💙 In Loving Memory of Pete Joyce 💙

This post isn’t about asking for anything — it’s about honoring a man whose life embodied everything we stand for.

Pete was exactly the kind of person we strive to be at The Hope Institute. He never turned anyone away, always made time for a conversation, and helped people no matter what they were going through. That quiet strength and unwavering compassion defined him — and it defines the work we do every day.

It’s hard to put into words the kind of impact someone like Pete had on the people around him. He was the friend you could count on — the one who showed up without being asked and made others feel seen, heard, and genuinely cared for.

Pete believed deeply that everyone deserves another chance — even when life gets messy. That’s just who he was: steady, kind, and real.

We were incredibly moved to learn that his family chose to honor Pete’s life by directing donations to The Hope Institute in lieu of flowers. It’s a gesture that speaks volumes about who he was — giving back what was so freely given to him.

Any support made in Pete’s name will go directly toward scholarships for individuals seeking treatment who might not otherwise be able to access care.
It’s a powerful way to carry on Pete’s legacy of showing up for others when they need it most.

If you feel moved to contribute or have any questions, I’d be honored to speak with you directly.

Thank you for helping us celebrate a man who truly made the world a better place. 💙

Share Memories and Support the Family.

Today, The Hope Institute Treatment Center proudly honors International Overdose Awareness Day (IOAD). Held on August 31 each year, IOAD is the world’s largest annual campaign dedicated to ending overdose, remembering those we’ve lost without stigma, and acknowledging the grief of their families and friends.

By coming together, we can make a significant impact through harm reduction and increased awareness. Let’s honor those who have passed by supporting efforts that save lives and promote understanding. Every step towards compassion and effective harm reduction brings us closer to a future without overdose. 💜

Join us in making a difference and spreading the message of hope and healing.

August is a powerful month of awareness as we approach International Overdose Awareness Day on August 31st. Let’s unite to honor those we’ve lost, support those in recovery, and advocate for change. Addiction and overdose impacts people from all walks of life, regardless of age, background, or circumstance. By understanding the risks, recognizing the signs of an overdose, and knowing how to respond, we can make a significant difference in saving lives. Awareness and education are necessary for prevention. It is crucial that we spread knowledge about the dangers of substance misuse, the availability of life-saving interventions like naloxone, and the resources available for those struggling with addiction. Together, we can break the stigma and save lives. Everyday we at The Hope Institute provide a safe judgment free environment for those seeking treatment. 💜
The Hope Institute is contributing to the raising awareness regarding overdose. In addition to offering a group with our clients where we may honor all the loved ones lost to overdose, we are holding a Narcan training for all of our staff members and clients.
Everyday someone believes that they cannot seek help or improve their life through recovery. The Hope Institute dedicates their time to show that Recovery is possible and there is a light at the end of their tunnel. ✨💜

Today, on National Self Care Day, let’s reflect on the importance of holistic well-being, including mental health and addiction recovery. Taking care of ourselves isn’t just about bubble baths and face masks; it’s about addressing deeper needs too. Here at The Hope Institute, we understand that true recovery begins with self-care. ☺️🛁🧖‍♀️

Remember, self-care can mean seeking help when needed and making choices that nurture your long-term health and happiness. 🌟
Let’s spread awareness and support for those in recovery and highlight the resources available. Together, we can break the stigma and encourage meaningful conversations about mental health and addiction. 💚

Happy Pride Month! June is a time to celebrate love, diversity, and the freedom to be yourself. At The Hope Institute Treatment Center, we stand with the LGBTQ+ community in the fight for equality and acceptance.

We recognize that substance and alcohol abuse can disproportionately affect LGBTQ+ individuals. The unique challenges faced by this community, including discrimination and stigma, can lead to higher rates of substance use. That's why we are committed to providing compassionate and inclusive support to everyone, regardless of their identity.

If you or someone you know is struggling with substance or alcohol abuse, remember: you are not alone. Reach out to us for help, and let's navigate this journey together.

Together, we can create a world where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.
