A Fond du Lac County based non-profit organization that assists women in recovery from substance abuse and trauma is closing. Mahala’s Hope president Rhiannon Diederichs says “It is with deep regret the decision to cease operations and close permanently.” Diederichs says the organization has faced location challenges that have made it impossible to keep operations running. Since it’s inception Mahala’s Hope has served 248 women, affecting 280 minor children across several Wisconsin counties. The organization says it will work to ensure current clients receive support and referrals to other organizations.
