Request for Proposals
Beginning in 1986, the Roman Catholic Church in the State of Hawaii, doing business as the Office for Social Ministry, pioneered the response to much needed services for families and individuals experiencing homelessness on Hawai`i Island. As the need for focused housing and support services greatly increased due to prevalent and increased rates of homelessness, HOPE Services Hawaii, Inc. (HOPE Services, or HOPE) was created. Since its inception as a nonprofit charitable organization in 2010, HOPE has expanded its service capacity and evolved to target and serve the most economically- and socially disadvantaged populations. HOPE has increased its capacity to meet the needs of the island-wide community, leveraging partnerships with County and State agencies, private foundations and other social service organizations, and developing and operationalizing data-informed best practices to improve the lives of our community’s most needy: those at imminent risk of and experiencing homelessness.
