A Spark of Light: Hope For All Service Center History
In 2002, founder Julie Brown possessed a vision: she wanted her sister Genevieve, born with Down Syndrome, to have a place where she could get resources specific to her, learn to advocate for herself, become more independent, and meet others with similar experiences, such as developmental delays or autism.
This dream, she decided, was not too lofty. With the support of like-minded and determined people in the community, Hope For All was established in 2003 as a brick-and-mortar center.
By 2007, events and classes were added to serve seniors who might be experiencing loneliness or emptiness. Today, we are committed to reaching many people experiencing vulnerability in our community, recognizing the value and unique, wonderful qualities of all.
Our Tenets
Empowerment
Empowerment is a chief objective of Hope For All, playing a key part in a well-rounded, happy life of an adult with developmental disabilities—and anyone, of course, because we are all people with the same needs and wants out of life.
We strive to empower adults by helping them:
- Set and define achievable goals
- Stay motivated with positivity
- Develop lifelong skills
- Practice those skills in real settings
- Access employment opportunities with great partners in the community
Enrichment
Enriching people’s lives through social events and educational classes is also imperative. We offer both professional-run and volunteer-run classes and are always adding new ones—so check back often!
Equality
Equality for everyone is at the heart of Hope For All. Whether you are neurotypical, developmentally delayed, have cerebral palsy, or are on the autism spectrum — we believe everyone deserves happiness, dignity, and community.
We know many individuals have experienced bullying or self-esteem struggles. That’s why we run Bullying Victim/Self-Esteem groups, often led by certified volunteer therapists. Our goal is to help you heal, grow, and see yourself as just as worthy as anyone else.
