MISSION STATEMENT - Helping Ourselves
through Peer Support & Employment (H.O.P.E.) is a consumer/survivor organization providing meaningful
employment, advocacy and peer support for mental health consumers in Brant
County.
Helping Ourselves through Peer Support & Employment has been a non-profit charitable
organization since 1993.
We
are funded by Ontario's Ministry of Health and Long Term Care as a
Consumer/Survivor Initiative, which allow Consumer/ Survivors to use their
coping skills to help other consumers become survivors.
A
Consumer/Survivor
is a person who has been afflicted with a mental health issue and has learned
to cope with that issue.
Peer support is an
integral component of all that we do, while supporting each other on the job,
while volunteering and while reaching out to others who have lived with a
mental illness. See our Values of Peer Support.
H.O.P.E. runs the peer
support program, WE CARE, as well as hosting several special
events throughout the year.
We also operate a
business called QuicKlean, which employs consumer /survivors to do small
residential moving, janitorial work, carpet cleaning, residential cleanouts
restoration of apartments, plumbing repairs, drywall & painting repairs,
and tile floor strip & wax.
QuicKlean also operates a thrift
store from where second hand furniture and appliances are sold to the general
public to generate additional revenue.
H.O.P.E. also produces its own
newsletter, the Advocate. See Current
Edition of our Newsletter.
