Building Stability In Housing: HOPE Services

HOPE’s mission is to: bring to life the gospel values of justice, love, and hope through service, empowerment and advocacy. HOPE is a statewide non-profit agency that initiates and provides innovative safety net programs to the vulnerable and marginalized in the state of Hawai’i. Our programs are designed to help homeless families and individuals attain the skills needed to maximize their potential, succeed in permanent housing and achieve self-sufficiency. These programs include homeless outreach, mental health outreach, drop-in centers, emergency and transitional housing programs, permanent supportive housing programs, representative payee services and SNAP (formerly food stamps) outreach. In 2010, HOPE served nearly 3,500 individuals. These outcomes are attributed to the dedication of HOPE staff and volunteers and their belief in the mission to “bring to life gospel values of justice, love, compassion and hope through service, empowerment and advocacy.” The 2-year Employment Core Training Program goal is to provide services that will enable participants to overcome barriers associated with incarceration and homelessness leading to gainful employment and achieving self-sufficiency.
