Lacie Baxley, Founder
Lacie Baxley is the founder, providing the vision, leadership, and direction behind Addie’s House of Hope
Addie’s House of Hope was born from profound loss, deep love, and the unwavering belief that hope can take root even in life’s most difficult seasons. In October 2017, just 14 days into my own recovery, I lost my daughter, Addie Morgan Hayes, in a tragic car accident. That heartbreak could have ended my journey, but over time, my pain became the foundation for a greater purpose—one rooted in honoring Addie’s life and helping others find their way forward.
In March 2021, I opened Addie’s House of Hope to provide women with a safe haven, daily accountability, and compassionate support as they navigate the challenges of early recovery. Having walked this path myself, I understand that recovery requires radical honesty, hard work, and the courage to begin again, even when the future feels uncertain. Every day, it is an honor to witness women rebuild their families, embrace independence, strengthen their confidence, and rediscover that their stories are still worth fighting for.
Our leadership brings over eight years of experience walking alongside women fighting for their lives, backed by peer support and GARR-aligned recovery residence standards. We know firsthand that recovery requires honesty, structure, forgiveness, and the courage to begin again. We do not promise an easy road, but we guarantee you will never have to walk it alone.
"Addie’s House of Hope is more than a name on a building. It is my daughter’s legacy, a reflection of my own recovery journey, and a promise that as long as there is breathe, there is hope."
