About Us

Our Mission

In Christ-like service, equipping and empowering people to live a successful, joy-filled life.

Our Vision

We envision that Center of Hope will be at the leading edge of a movement to push back hopelessness in Parker County, Texas. Our organization will consistently radiate waves of hope that generate transformation within our sphere of influence. This transformation will reduce the level of poverty, break generational cycles of poverty, increase levels of self-sufficiency, improve life and job skills, and foster increased attitudes of caring within our community.

Our desire is to instill hope in our community by exemplifying God’s expectations expressed in Micah 6:8, “to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with your God.” We will draw alongside of churches, businesses and individuals who share our desire of creating a community of hope that produces the opportunity for people to live successful, joy-filled lives.

The gauge of our accomplishment will be found in the satisfaction of:

    • Our staff members who thrive in their role of serving others
    • Our volunteers who experience fulfillment of their personal calling by serving with us
    • Our donors who discover the value of investing in our cause
    • Our partners who share our dream and multiply hope
    • Our participants whose lives have been transformed by their encounter with hope

 

By God’s grace, he will use our organization to leave his imprint of love and hope on the community that he has called us to serve.

Restoring Hope and Changing Lives

Today, Parker County Center of Hope operates all programs from 1318 Clear Lake Road in Weatherford, Texas providing help to those who are hungry, homeless, under educated, unemployed, working but living at or near poverty, single parents, the elderly, disabled, disadvantaged youth and children and families in crisis.

The Hope Chest upscale resale shop was added in June 2014 as a means by which 6-month internships would be offered to individuals who had participated in the Jobs for Life program or are referred by Texas Workforce for job training purposes.

Through more than 20 years of service, Center of Hope has learned that while addressing the material aspects of poverty is important, true rehabilitation and restoration are only achieved through long-term solutions.  We have focused our work on an integrated service model that addresses the holistic needs of individuals and leads them to a path of economic independence and improved quality of life. 

We Believe:

  • Every Person has value – regardless…
  • Relationships are essential to discover the root of the problem
  • Effective assistance requires accountability
  • Long-term solutions require personal investment
  • Success is achieved through addressing physical, educational and spiritual needs
