Orchids of Hope was founded by Esmeralda Barron, a community leader and child abuse advocate from Hallsville, Tx. Many years ago, Esmeralda was a victim of abuse and battled with addictions. Her personal experience and the tragic stories of others that she helped along the way motivated her to start “Orchids of Hope”, and provide Spanish and English speakers of all ages, backgrounds, and locations, the opportunities that she would have liked to have had in the past. 

Our organization partners with Bilingual (English and Spanish) Mental Health professionals to provide individuals of all ages the opportunity to learn about suicide, abuse, and addiction prevention regardless of their location. Additionally and depending on funding, we may also be able to provide individuals in-person or virtual, one-on-one counseling services.
