HOPE introduces participants to mental health supports, increasing motivation to change and ultimately resulting in a referral to additional needed services. The HOPE program is a unique partnership between our street outreach and reentry teams which allows participants to receive intensive mentorship and nonviolence training while establishing their personal safety, developing pro-social behaviors, maintaining basic daily norms, and achieving self-created goals. Some of the topics covered in the HOPE curriculum include the principles of nonviolence, cognitive behavioral intervention (CBI), conflict mediation, and restorative justice.
