More about this organization

During a frigid winter of 2006/07, five people died of exposure-related illnesses in Boulder County, and a dedicated group of citizens responded. They started a Longmont-based, year-round street outreach program to assist and protect homeless individuals. Soon after, HOPE was formed (May 13) and established as a 501(c)(3) on June 12, 2007.

For many years, HOPE was run primarily by volunteers, who are still a thriving part of HOPE’s ever-growing services. They are now joined by dedicated full-time staff, a dedicated board, and many more part-time staff.
