This is a hard time for everyone -- families, organizations, and, of course, the youth and their families here at Hopeworks. However, even in the midst of all of this, we are also grateful and excited right now! Thanks to our amazing supporters, partners, and clients, Hopeworks youth continue to grow, thrive, and earn wages during this stressful time. When many of their families have lost jobs and income, our youth continue to bring home critical paychecks and stipends to help out. They have also adapted to the "new normal" with incredible agility and have been super productive working remotely.
This happens only because everyone in our ecosystem has made it possible for us to be flexible and continue to help youth change their lives, even under extraordinary circumstances. Thank you for making the stories in this newsletter possible.
With gratitude,
Dan Rhoton
Executive Director
