- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
We are looking for individuals to visit weekdays between the hours of 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM that are capable of and interested in leading small group activities. We will develop the specific activity with you, based on your interests, knowledge and experiences. Some successful activities from the past include basketball, walking, simple crafting, drawing, dancing, photography, and acting. The activity will last roughly 1 hour, but we set aside extra time for set up and transitions.
Small groups involve roughly 10 people and are fully supported by staff. The only notable exception is walking, which is open to everyone and takes place outside, behind our main campus.
If you are free during this time period and would like to explore the idea of leading a small group activity, please get in touch. We would absolutely love to have you join the Hi-Hope family!

Mission Statement
Hi-Hope Service Center supports adults with developmental disabilities by building and sustaining individual independence.
Description
In 1960 the parents of six young students from Gwinnett County founded one of the first organizations in Georgia to teach children with intellectual disabilities. Under the capable leadership of Mrs.Vinie Lowry and support from many parents and the greater Gwinnett Community construction of a special needs school was completed in 1970. A special needs preschool was added subsequently. In the late 1990’s when all student programs, including the pre-school program, were integrated into the public schools, Hi-Hope became an adult only program.
Today, Hi-Hope Center carries on the founders' legacy of caring and innovation by supporting adults with developmental disabilities by building and sustaining their independence.
