HOPE Services Hawaii Inc. is an affiliate non-profit organization of the Roman Catholic Church in the State of Hawaii. We envision a world where those who face great challenges realize their value and self worth. Our mission is to bring to life the gospel values of justice, love, compassion and hope through service, empowerment and advocacy. HOPE Services Hawaii ends homelessness by housing at least 270 households each year. We intentionally serve those with the deepest needs first, and help at least 85% of them stay housed forever - never returning to homelessness. We do this work because it improves the health and wellness of the people we serve, maximizes the potential of each individual and family we serve, and is economically in the best interest of the taxpayers of Hawaii to end homelessness rather than manage homelessness.
