Bridging the Gap
Helping Your Clients Access the Resources Needed to Transition and Recover from the Disease of Addiction
Herren Project is committed to bridging the gap through Recovery Scholarships to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals leaving treatment for drugs and alcohol who are motivated for recovery and need financial assistance. Our aim is to provide a safe and effective transition into recovery, with a strong focus on achieving long-term recovery and instilling hope and optimism in our scholarship recipients.
Herren Project’s Recovery Team works directly with case managers and recovery care coordinators at vetted treatment facilities to ensure a successful transition for all people who have taken the first step toward recovery from drugs and alcohol.
Applying
To receive a recovery scholarship for sober living and recovery coaching, candidates must currently be in an addiction treatment program in one of our 12 privately funded consortium states. They must be referred by a case manager or be a current Herren Project client. Applicants must submit a personal statement explaining why they require a scholarship and how it will support their recovery goals. Case managers must submit a recommendation letter on the applicant’s behalf.
Availability
Scholarships are currently available in 12 states: Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida, Colorado, and Texas. Funding availability varies by state and by month.
If you are inquiring from another state, financial resources are not available at this time. However, our team is happy to assist you with options for a vetted recovery house or other resources if they are able. Please email the team instead of filling out this form. A member of our recovery team will help as best as they can.

Consortium for Recovery
Herren Project began its recovery scholarship program in 2015. Over the past 9 years, Herren Project has awarded 1,500 recovery housing and coaching scholarships to motivated individuals, many of whom are still in long-term recovery. In order to keep up with the overwhelming demand for recovery and financial support for individuals upon leaving treatment, Herren Project has begun the development of the Consortium for Recovery. The consortium creates state-restricted funds within the Herren Project, which are privately funded through grants and major donors. Herren Project currently provides financial scholarships for recovery housing and coaching in 12 states: Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida, Georgia, and Texas. Fund amounts and eligibility vary by state.
Herren Project has established trusted, vetted relationships with treatment providers and recovery homes in these 12 states. Ongoing evaluations are conducted yearly to ensure safe and secure environments for all scholarship recipients and clients to provide the confidence a person needs in their recovery journey. Herren Project employs its own team of ten peer recovery coaches to support all recoverees over three phases for six months.
We aim to continue growing our network of state consortia to provide recovery scholarships to more individuals nationwide. If you are interested in helping to provide funding in one of these states or another state, please contact our Executive Director, Bonnie Sawyer.
We are always looking for new recovery houses and trusted treatment providers across the United States. If you know of a quality provider or recovery house, please reach out to Angie Tibbetts, Director of Recovery Services.
