Mission Statement
Seeing a huge gap in employment services for the poor, in April, 2009, after several years of preparation, New Hope Enterprises was founded as a 501c3 non-profit corporation to create employment opportunities through job-training programs, job placement services, and the operation of social enterprises to provide real chances, even second chances, for those we serve.
New Hope Enterprises mission is to improve the quality of life for economically disadvantaged individuals and families of Greater Atlanta through education, job training, job placement, and ongoing support services which illuminates pathways out of poverty to real employment.
Description
Client programs providing life skills development and job readiness skills coupled with certified vocational job-training programs result in successful employment outcomes. To maximize job placement opportunities, New Hope will create its own social enterprises in conjunction with some of the specific job training programs. New Hope's dedicated job placement specialists will focus their efforts to directly place those we serve, either within related social ventures or the traditional job market.
