Local Causes to Enhance Lives

Knowing as many as 1 in 4 people struggle with a mental health condition, HopeWay’s founding board was committed to making evidence-based treatment more accessible. HopeWay opened in 2016 to fill the gap in the continuum of care between hospitalization and individual outpatient care. Prior to HopeWay, anyone in the Charlotte area needing more comprehensive treatment had to travel out-of-state to one of the few primary mental health facilities in the U.S. Since opening, HopeWay has served thousands of clients from across the nation through an integrated, proven model, helping people learn the skills necessary to live productive and meaningful lives. HopeWay also offers evidence-based treatment for Veterans with PTSD, and has an outpatient clinic, HopeWay Psychiatry & Associates, that serves children, adolescents, and adults. Seeing additional need in the community, HopeWay is expanding to offer primary mental health treatment for middle school and high school students and eating disorder treatment for teens and young adults. On a daily basis, HopeWay clients return to school, work, and their families with a renewed sense of hope and strength, and the ability to navigate their life while effectively managing their mental health. HopeWay is thrilled to soon be able to offer this live changing treatment to our youth.
