PROJECT HOPE IS A MULTI SERVICE AGENCY THAT MOVES FAMILIES UP AND OUT OF POVERTY. WE PROVIDE LOW-INCOME WOMEN ACCESS TO EDUCATION, JOBS, HOUSING, CHILD CARE, AND EMERGENCY SERVICES. WE FOSTER PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION AND WORK WITH THE COMMUNITY AND STATE FOR BROADER SYSTEMS CHANGE.
THE ORIGINAL MISSION OF PROJECT HOPE'S HOUSING SERVICES WAS TO FIND AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR FAMILIES LIVING IN THE SHELTER. WHILE CONTINUING THAT SERVICE TODAY, WE ALSO FOCUS ON HELPING DORCHESTER AND ROXBURY FAMILIES FIND AND KEEP AFFORDABLE HOUSING. A TEAM OF STAFF PROVIDES HOUSING COUNSELING, EVICTION PREVENTION, LANDLORD NEGOTIATION, HOUSING SEARCH ASSISTANCE, BUDGETING ADVICE AND EMERGENCY RENTAL FUNDS. IN FY2019, THE HOUSING SERVICES TEAM SERVED 377 FAMILIES.
IN 1998 PROJECT HOPE LAUNCHED THE FAMILY CHILD CARE BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (FCCBE), AN INNOVATIVE VENTURE THAT SUPPORTS QUALITY HOME-BASED CHILDCARE CENTER PROVIDERS. WOMEN GIFTED IN CARING FOR CHILDREN GAIN THE SKILLS AND SUPPORT TO RUN THEIR OWN BUSINESSES. FCCBE PROVIDERS ARE LICENSED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF EARLY EDUCATION AND CARE. COLLEGE LEVEL CHILD DEVELOPMENT COURSES AND A RANGE OF EDUCATIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES ARE OFFERED ON AN ONGOING BASIS. IN FY2019, 125 CHILDREN WERE CARED FOR BY 25 FCCBE PROVIDERS.
PROJECT HOPE'S FAMILY SHELTER WAS ONE OF THE FIRST HOMELESS SHELTERS FOR FAMILIES IN THE STATE AND REMAINS A MODEL FOR ITS RESPECTFUL AND EMPOWERING APPROACH. THE FAMILY SHELTER OFFERS A HAVEN FOR 11 SINGLE MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN AT A TIME. EACH FAMILY HAS A PRIVATE ROOM AND ACCESS TO A COMMUNAL KITCHEN, DINING ROOM, LIVING ROOM AND CHILDREN'S ACTIVITY ROOM. THEY RECEIVE ASSISTANCE TO FIND SAFE AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR THEIR FAMILIES AND ACCESS TO EDUCATIONAL AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS. OUR PROGRAMMING IS DESIGNED TO PROMOTE CONFIDENCE AND EMPOWERMENT, HELPING WOMEN FIND THE COURAGE TO PREVAIL AGAINST TREMENDOUS ODDS TO OBTAIN A BETTER LIFE.
