H.O.O.P. FOUNDATION

CELEBRATING OUR 14TH YEAR OF CHARITABLE COMMUNITY SERVICES.

Holistic Offerings & Opportunity for People, Inc. was established in 2008 to engage the extremely low-income neighborhood youth in the city. From the inception of the organization, the need to engage foster, homeless, juvenile justice-involved, and underserved youth was evident through the various community assessments and surveys. In practice and in theory, transforming individual behaviors is vital when the goal is deterring recidivism and reducing negative reactions to inequalities exacerbated by lack of support or advocacy. H.O.O.P. Inc. established a network of professionals, lifelong educators, juvenile justice administrators, high character college students, and business owners focused on motivating, engaging, and providing a positive role model to underserved youth.
