One Hope United’s residential care programs provide a range of quality services to children and youth as well as to their families and guardians involved with the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. Children entering residential care are often traumatized or in crisis. We provide mental health services and tailor a treatment plan to fulfill the specific needs of each individual.


Our programs help youth develop social skills, build trust and form relationships, with the ultimate goal being for youth to return to a family setting, or to prepare them for adulthood by helping them achieve self-sufficiency, educational goals, and financial stability. One Hope United has residential facilities in northern and central Illinois. 


The blankets donated from Penny's Purpose to One Hope United will be used for the boys that reside at Lake Villa as part of the C.A.R.E. – Residential Treatment program. These boys range in age from 9 years old to 18 years old.
