WHO WE ARE: Hope Network is a non-profit organization operating across the state of Michigan. We have 240 locations and serve over 34,000 people with disabilities or disadvantages each and every year. WHAT WE DO: We help people overcome physical, mental or social barriers that impact how they live. The result is fulfillment through independence, progress, and community integration. Whether it’s… …a dad recovering from a brain injury …a child growing up with autism …an ex-offender trying to re-enter society …a teenager battling depression We have countless stories of restoration to tell. HOW WE DO IT: For over 60 years, we’ve provided neuro rehabilitation, behavioral healthcare, developmental support services, autism services, community support, and more. We do this because we believe every person was created to live life to the fullest – no matter their age, no matter their background, no matter what’s holding them back. WHY IT MATTERS: 60 million people in the U.S. suffer from disabilities or disadvantages that impact how they live. Over one million of these people live in Michigan. To put it into perspective, that’s more than the population of Detroit. A majority have fallen through the cracks and aren’t receiving the care they deserve. That’s a problem – but we’re solving it by being advocates for these people. hopenetwork.org | 800.695.7273

We care deeply that children with disabilities in the world’s poorest communities live healthier, happier, longer lives. Too many of these kids are sick, lonely, abused, dying. We believe each one is loved and valued by God. No child should be forgotten. Why? Because we believe that a whole world needs everyone. No one should be forgotten. So together with Canadians like you, we fight for equal access to school and to jobs for people with disabilities in developing countries. Together with you, we give healing hugs to kids in need – giving medical and rehabilitative care that heals young bodies and mends broken hearts. Together with you we share God’s love with the most vulnerable children and families on the planet.
