Learn Together
Courses & Classes for the Community
Our courses are community-run — taught by peers, helpers, and Dr. Gross — not as lectures from on high, but as shared learning where every story counts.
Some are structured multi-week courses; others are drop-in community classes. This is experiential learning — not just the extrapolation of wisdom, but real self-discovery, agency, and autonomy. We guide toward what’s true within the meta, not any one specific truth, because specific truths tend to divide. Here we choose humility over knowing and kindness over confusion.
Peers help build the curriculum itself, mentored by doctoral-level providers and researchers — so the heart of the work is actually accomplished, and the learning stays curious, humble, and human.

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.
