Dear Friends,
We are excited about our accomplishments and program enhancements over the past fiscal year. First, Hope House was granted Accreditation by the Council on Accreditation. This third-party accreditation signifies that we are effectively managing our resources and providing the best possible services to our stakeholders based on their analysis using nationally recognized best-practice standards. It is an honor and privilege to be accredited and confirms our value of maintaining the highest ethical standards for the services we provide. And we continue to strive for the best possible programming with the highest outcomes for our clients.
Additionally, Hope House has expanded our programming by securing additional funding sources, and some of the expansions include:
• Increasing the Guardian Program to six days a week from three;
• Adding an Assessment Specialist and new Outreach Children’s Therapist to our therapy group;
• Adding Outreach Advocates to assist more outreach clients;
• The creation of a new Training Coordinator position for enhanced training opportunities for our staff.
These accomplishments were only possible through the support from our individual donors, foundations, business donors, and a community who continues to stand behind our mission. The numbers in this report represent how each of those donation dollars saves lives and helps survivors of domestic violence begin living a life free from abuse because of their interaction with Hope House.
Together we will work towards a safer community for future generations.
Thank you,
Michael Moore MaryAnne Metheny Board Chair Chief Executive Officer
