More Hope is

on the horizon

25 years in, we're still growing.

What started with a little Hope has grown into 25 years of learning, faith and community. Today, we're building on that legacy with new opportunities for children and families, deeper investments in our communities and more ways for you to grow with us.

Our
Beginning

Imagine a small preschool in a church basement that became a growing ministry serving children and families across New Haven.

Building
The Future

Economic Reform & Investments

Hope For New Haven’s mission seeks to not only transform our children and families but to transform the communities in which they live. In 2014, we co-founded CERCLE, a non-profit collaborative of early childhood educators and business owners serving Black and Latino children and families.

How we 

create change

Our Approach

Strong communities are built by investing in the whole person and the systems that shape their lives. Through education, economic investment, and faith, we create opportunities for children and families while working toward lasting change in our community.

Spiritual investments

Hope For New Haven connects our community with the support, services, and resources that enhance family and individual functioning while declaring God as the ultimate provider for all needs. Our weekly bible study teaches the gospel and brings families, community members, and staff together, extending the circle of support and helping families build resiliency.
