About

NHS works with people that are interested in freeing their life from household/business clutter

Mission:

• To transform the global perception, treatment, and outcomes of compulsive hoarding. This is achieved through trauma-informed education, humane intervention, and generational healing.
• To transform hoarded environments, and the lives bound to them, through compassionate restoration, trauma-aware education, and sustainable community reintegration.

A world where every individual living with compulsive hoarding has access to humane solutions that honor their story, restore their space, and preserve their dignity.

• Trauma manifests as clutter; shame is never a solution.
• Objects can hold both Negative Emotional Attachment (NEA) and Positive Emotional Attachment (PEA); healing requires discerning the difference.
• Restoration is a partnership, not a takeover.
• Sustainability matters: environmentally, financially, and emotionally.
• Life Stories and the heirlooms attached to them, deserve preservation.

NHS will look like a silent, boots-on-the-ground, “what are they actually doing over there”, type of not-for-profit.

• Hoarders, themselves, will hire NHS to do their clean outs for them, coach them on how to do it themselves.

• Families of hoarders will donate their hoarded loved ones houses and barns and hoarded properties over to NHS for a tax write-off. NHS will only pay them for the value of the land the objects sit on. And that will be negotiated through real estate transactions.

The (privacy-protected) NHS crew will arrive next day to produce the G.R.O.W. system @copyright, undo the hoard, preserve family memories, giving those back to the client, as NHS sees fit. The client and the client’s family will trust NHS to know what is a PEA and what is an NEA (what is priceless and what is trash). If there is any question, the director of NHS will be privately connected to the client and one lead family director and sent pies and ask questions as the director deems fit.

Yes, priceless items may be lost but NHS are the Global Experts in Emotional Attachment to Things.

Priority

• Starting in 4 Illinois counties as of July, 2025, eventually leading to a Nationwide campaign
• One-on-one director partnership during clean-out; NHS catalogs every item using the NEA/PEA framework.
• Heirloom return guarantee: All priceless family objects returned at no cost. No disputes over market value.
• Asset stewardship: Remaining items ethically sorted to auction, recycle, donate. Proceeds flow back into NHS operations.
• Property pathway: After clean-out, houses are either:
• Renovated & resold to fund NHS or
• Converted into NHS legacy/transitional housing.
