Can we help you?
We understand the fear and stress of asking for help. The Center of Hope is a transitional housing program designed to help women move from a lifestyle of brokenness to a lifestyle of abundance in Christ.
We are not an emergency shelter able to welcome people in immediately. We are a transitional housing program — and the journey starts with a conversation.
Transitional housing
From first call to move-in, the process is personal, careful, and usually takes about one week.
It starts with a phone call to 803-581-5890 to discuss your individual circumstances — no forms, no pressure.
If the Center isn't the right fit for your needs, we'll share other options and opportunities in the area.
When your needs and goals match our resources, we schedule a time to sit down together in person.
A background check and drug test on entry day complete the process — typically about one week start to finish.
Want to know more before you call? Our full program manual is available on the Hope & Help page.

Our world is in the midst of a mental health crisis. The church — who has THE answer — has too often deferred to secular psychology and failed to bring the hope of Jesus Christ to those suffering from mental brokenness.
Medicine and psychology are valuable sciences. Psychiatric medicines often stabilize brain chemistry so thought processes and the capacity for relationships can develop. But psychology and pharmacology are incomplete without the input of skilled biblical counsel.
As the Body of Christ, it's our responsibility to share how Jesus is the answer to life's hurts. Words of theological truth alone are sometimes an irritation at best — we can do better, and learn to come alongside others as Christ has come alongside each of us.
