The Big Bend Homeless Coalition (BBHC) is recognizing the 15th Anniversary of its HOPE Community, which provides shelter, early childhood assessments, housing-focused case management, parent/guardian assistance, and resource coordination to families with minor children experiencing homelessness. Two-thirds of those sheltered at HOPE are children, and each year HOPE shelters over 350 people.
JLT is in its fourth-year of partnership with HOPE Community and is proud to support HOPE’s integral work in the community. “There is no better time than now to assist people who are experiencing a transient phase in their lives,” says Fabiola Antoine, Junior League of Tallahassee New Member Representative. “I believe that the Junior League of Tallahassee is doing more good to help families and children at HOPE who are experiencing difficulties—difficulties that not only do we normally have but have been exacerbated by the pandemic.”
HOPE kicked off their #15YearsOfHOPE Anniversary Campaign on December 1st. The campaign will continue until December 15th to raise awareness of critical services offered at HOPE to families and children experiencing homelessness in our Big Bend communities. Because we believe in home, JLT is proud to have HOPE Community as one of our Jill Pope Community Partners.
