About Us

Students with substance use disorders, committed to recovery, in all Region 2 school divisions with a targeted population of divisions on the Southside of Virginia including Chesapeake, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk and Virginia Beach, may voluntarily seek enrollment in the Harbor Hope Center, a full-day center geographically located in the city of Chesapeake. Students will complete a comprehensive application and screening process to determine eligibility, and once accepted and enrolled, will work with a program coordinator, teacher, teacher assistant, and licensed clinical staff including a clinical coordinator and peer recovery specialist to receive a range of academic and therapeutic services. Although physically at the Harbor Hope Center, students will remain concurrently enrolled in the home school of record which will maintain official academic, disciplinary, 504/ IEP, testing, and attendance records.
