The Hope House is a home shelter designed to create a family atmosphere for individuals who have lost their jobs and/or homes; emancipated teens that are transitioning out of foster care and disable veterans.
This FLCC program will help in the fight to end homelessness and hunger. The Hope House residents receive job training at the community center 4 hours a day, 5 days a week.
The house parents supervise the young adults and each member of the house has assigned duties. Weekly meetings are held for input and recognition from the household. House members are also mentored to encourage self-sufficiency and foster confidence in essential personal and social skills.
The program can last three to five years, depending on the family or individual. They earn money by working at the community center, providing them the opportunity to purchase their first car or even a down payment on a home.
