Eagles Hope Transitions provides a safe and sober living environment that allows all people to maintain dignity and respect, and long-term personal and financial sustainability.

“WyoGives is a great opportunity to help us continue the work we do in the community by providing transitional housing and homeless prevention. Right now, we are working on getting 4 more rooms livable. Two of the rooms are about 65% done. The other two are down to the dirt floor. We are also working to upgrade our kitchen to be a commercial kitchen,” stated Michelle Widmayer, Executive Director of Eagles Hope Transitions.
