Mission Statement

Hope Partnership aims to provide a holistic continuum of care in order to end homelessness and poverty in Central Florida. We do this by connecting service providers, businesses, investors, and clients with evidence-based solutions and trauma-informed care practices in order to strengthen communities, empower our neighbors, and build hope. The entities of Hope Partnership provide programming that is trauma-informed and client-centered to help achieve our goals to end homelessness and poverty.

Description

In 2011, Community Presbyterian Church in Celebration recognized a growing number of families and children experiencing poverty and living in hotels and motels along Highway 192. They knew the faith community had a role to play, and the idea of Community Hope Center was born.

In 2013, Community Hope Center’s vision came full circle, with our service center’s grand opening to provide holistic care to all those in need in our community. A building that was once an IHOP and then a Mexican restaurant became the new home of hope in our community. The goal was to provide a spot for various agencies and providers to co-locate in one location-creating a "no wrong door" approach to provide all the resources a family may need to achieve self-determined stability. Our plan was to serve 200 families a year; in the first year, we served 1,000 families. Over time, the number of agency partnerships grew, as did the number of families being served.
