BCD Hoover Center

The Neighborhood Support Center encompasses the Hoover Treatment Center, which provides out-patient services and residential treatment for up to 58 people with substance abuse problems. Additional Support Center provisions include a homeless shelter, an HIV/AIDS ministry and a gang intervention program.

 

To provide continued support to former Hoover Treatment Center patients, Black Community Developers has set up transitional “chemical-free” housing in five formerly vacant buildings located near the church. For a small rental fee, up to 24 spaces are available to individuals who have found employment.

 

Residents have 24-hour care and continue to receive intensive case management and financial counseling, to facilitate moving into their own homes. They are permitted to stay indefinitely, provided they stay sober and work toward transitioning out. About 70 percent of residents accomplish these goals
