Community Transition Programs

Walking With People Into Stable, Hope-Filled Lives

Partnering for Restoration

Restoring Hope Ministries extends Christ-centered care beyond our counseling rooms through structured community partnerships. We currently offer host partnerships with UMOS and programming in coordination with the Wisconsin Department of Corrections CCEP — both aimed at helping people transition well into work, community, and restored life.

We are also actively seeking volunteers to assist with financial literacy, job readiness, and life-skills formation. If you have a heart for restoration, we would love to connect with you.

    Care That Is Measured — Because People Are What Matter

    Restoring Hope Ministries tracks the well-being of every participant in our clinical and faith-based services using empirically validated screeners, clinical interviews, behavioral analysis, and self-report — so we can honestly see whether the people we serve are getting better. This rigor reflects the training of our founder, Dr. Gross, whose clinical psychology education and practical training at the Medical College of Wisconsin prepared him for this type of organization and care.
