Who We Are

We are people with developmental disabilities, who want nothing more than to control our own destinies and live in our own communities.

We are an organization of more than 250 full- and part-time employees, dedicated to empowering the people we support to live their lives to the fullest extent.

We are members of the Board of Directors, charting the course for Hope House, and we are constantly striving to find new ways to raise funds and awareness to help Hope House meet its goals.

We are volunteers, who set up tents for fundraising events, spend time with the people we support, and fix computers for the Hope House Thrift Shop.

We are people in the community, who gladly donate our money, goods, and services to help Hope House.

We are corporations and foundations which provide generous support through sponsorships, grants, endowments, and donations.

We are a 501c3 non-profit organization with an excellent record of fiscal responsibility and accountabillity.

We are the founders of Hope House: A group of parents who, back in 1964, were seeking an alternative to placing our children in institutions.

Together, we are committed to building a community in which everyone is included. Help us to build that community. Help us remain an alternative to institutionalization and group homes. Help us prove that true citizenship and independence can only start with a home of one’s own.
