ShareWe believe homelessness doesn't start with the absence of a home but rather the absence of HOPE. Through physical housing, our unique hope accelerator, and psychological wrap-around services, we give young people the support they need to not only find future housing and employment opportunities, but also their own personal purpose which will stay with them for the rest of their lives. We believe that your trauma can transform your experience into divine purpose. We think of our house in Northridge LA as a little family (as this literally is our founder’s family home) and we call our youth members — similar to family “members.” Expectations You wake up every morning with a unique sense of empathy and excellence, and a commitment to the greater good. You treat all people with respect and when someone else is suffering, you are the rock that gets them grounded. You see yourself as someone who is truly of-service, but in practice, you’re a proactive self-starter, who knows how to juggle varying priorities, and project management is your superpower. You’re emotionally aware, but not a pushover and know the responsibility of deadlines because you always keep them. You have parts of you that are creative and you thrive at creating systems and events from mere ideas. While other people may find such a task overwhelming, to you it’s the opposite —it’s exciting.

You make our programs possible and unlock the future of our members, who are hungry for better opportunities and employment. This job is NOT ❌: A typical 9—5 job.

We are a team where our focus is serving others and getting young people from a place of hopelessness (and homelessness) to hopefulness through our hope accelerator. Paid volunteer position.
