Homes of Hope for Children has one home for boys and one home for girls. Seven children live in each home with a set of full-time houseparents. The houseparents are committed Christian couples who have been “called” into this special work. The couples undergone extensive interviews and testing processes prior to being hired. The goal of each home is to maintain an environment that offers each child a chance to develop into a confident young adult with a high degree of self-sufficiency, an exemplary work ethic, a strong ethical base, and a clear understanding of right and wrong.Homes of Hope for Children is committed to helping children develop maturity, self-control, and accountability in relating to each other. Our goal is that they are positioned and equipped to one day have a healthy marriage and family relationship. This goal dictates that they learn and internalize these traits. Homes of Hope for Children provides a safe environment for children to learn, earn trust, and have the opportunity to experience building healthy relationships. Every program strives to teach and train children in making wise and responsible decisions.

Homes of Hope for Children takes proactive steps to keep our houseparents healthy and functioning optimally for the children. To that end, each set of houseparents is supported by:
  • A relief couple to fill in during time off for houseparents.
  • Regular “date” nights for the couple to spend time together or with their own family.
  • Weekly staff meetings for support.
  • Ongoing marriage and family counseling to strengthen their own family and marriage.
