Their program is 100% 211 referrals. For intake call 211 and ask to be put on the family shelter list.
Hope House, currently the only facility of Community of Hope, has capacity for up to eight families at a time. Each family is provided their own bedroom while the kitchen, living rooms, and bathrooms are more communal. Residents are encouraged to take the time necessary to begin making critical changes for themselves and their families, but generally stay for 3-5 months.
Residents are able to participate in a variety of classes while living at Hope House- including trauma-informed parenting classes, RentWell certification courses, and job skills training. Many residents work to overcome employment barriers like obtaining an ID, creating a resume, or finding reliable childcare. Others focus on repairing relationships or maintaining sobriety. Residents are connected to housing agencies, job placement companies, counseling services and a variety of other community social service providers.
