Beacon of Hope Shelter

 



 

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide safe shelter, food, and resources towards self sufficiency for homeless

members of our community and surrounding counties. We believe that all people deserve

basic necessities of life, and we have been called to this purpose.
 

 

Core Values

Our Core Values inform and direct decisions concerning
client services, operations and community relations.

 

Housing First
We believe homelessness is intolerable, preventable, and solvable.
Homelessness is solved primarily by re-housing families
quickly and appropriately, and providing limited follow up
to support housing stability.

Commitment
We passionately pursue preventing and ending homelessness,
creating innovative solutions, and embracing challenges.

Effectiveness
Our programs produce proven re-housing results for
client families. We continually develop new strategies
for improving the effectiveness of our services.

Community
We create connections among our donors, funders, supporters,
employees, volunteers, clients, and peer providers to energize
our commitment to ending homelessness.

Integrity
We are mission driven, accountable, consistent, and transparent.

Families
We respect the dignity, value and potential of all types of families, and
work to empower and educate client families to improve their lives.

Investment in Children
We invest in children to improve our community’s future,
and to break the cycle of inter-generational homelessness.

Organizational Strength
We are a stable, sustainable, cost-efficient, pragmatic,
and financially well-managed organization.
