She is grateful for the leadership that guided her to now happily manage First Step, where she gets to pay forward the experience she has gained since joining The Magdalen House team.

hope@magdalenhouse.org

Hope Moore was born in Denver, Colorado. As a child in a military family, she moved around some, and never really felt like she had experience with lifelong friendships. Hope mainly grew up in southern California, where she developed her love for Mexican food. Throughout her life, she always felt different which led to her desire for independence. After she established a career and began living life on her own, she found herself depending on alcohol as her closest friend. This then made her feel as though she dug a hole that she could not get out of alone.

Thanks to the support of a loving family, she moved to Texas in 2021 and tried to get her life together, however she was still struggling with her alcoholism and found herself hospitalized in 2022. Her dad found The Magdalen House and with little apprehension she decided to visit. Her life has been forever changed for the better. From struggling alone quietly dying, to finding new life in volunteering, sponsoring, and living on 10, 11, and 12.  Hope is forever changed and forever grateful!
