Why?
We befriend refugees and immigrants because of our faith in Jesus, who told us to not only welcome strangers but also treat them as though they are family. Furthermore, this community brings beautiful and needed culture and diversity, economic gain, an entrepreneurial spirit and strong work ethic to our city and region.
Our Approach:
The Hope Center is much more than a place for operating programs – it gives refugees and immigrants a place to belong, where they become part of a larger “family” of newcomers. We partner with refugees and immigrants at The Hope Center to provide community connections, family mentorship, employment, immigration counsel, after-school enrichment and tutoring – as well as human connections for daily life. Over 400 refugees and immigrants served each week.
