The Fazenda da Esperança is a therapeutic community that has been working since 1983 in the recovery process for people seeking freedom from alcohol and drug addictions. Its mission is to facilitate a liberating encounter with God, who nurtures integral health, fosters holistic regeneration, and inspires hope within individuals, families and communities. The 3 crucial aspects of the program are work, community and spirituality. The US community of Fazenda da Esperança was opened in Corpus Christi, Texas in 2023.
Join us in a transformative community service experience that not only helps individuals 
free themselves from alcohol and drug addictions, but also builds essential skills like leadership, teamwork, and communication.
By serving others, you’ll discover a renewed sense of purpose, fulfillment, and happiness. This is your opportunity to give back, create positive change, and uplift both yourself and those around you.
