This center primarily treats substance use disorders, helping you stabilize, create relapse-prevention plans, and connect to compassionate support.

The Washington Street Hope Center in Marksville, specializes in treating alcohol, gambling, and drug addiction for both men and women. Founded by Mrs. Josephine Hamilton, the center builds on her wisdom to foster a strong recovery community. Their vision is to offer hope and healing to those affected by addiction, providing steady, compassionate support around the clock. The center provides a 28-day residential program based on the proven Recovery Dynamics Curriculum, guiding patients through recovery with structured, supportive care.
