Our History

In early 1946, Clyde and Marie Gooderham, with the partnership and assistance of many others, founded the Utah Committee for Education on Alcoholism, which later became known as the Utah Alcoholism Foundation and finally Houseof Hope. Over the next 75 years, the organization expanded its services to include alcohol and chemical dependency treatment for all demographics including men, women, adolescents and children, with several specialized programs for native Spanish-speakers, deaf/hearing impaired, pregnant women, and more.

Our mission remains today: treating substance use disorders, rebuilding lives, strengthening families, and empowering women.
