Partners in Hope - who are we? We are hopeful people coming out of difficult backgrounds who are finding our way to new life with God. We were accompanied and helped in our journey so now we want to do the same for others.


Look around and see what we do. Borrow any ideas and programs you see here for your community. Contact us if you need help doing in your area something you see us doing here.

The days lengthen and  the evenings are brighter.  New flowers and green leaves make the streets look beautiful,.  But, it's still difficult if you are sleeping on those streets at night.  It's a tough time to be outside or anywhere, struggling with addictions and poverty in many ways.  Here at Partners in Hope we try to be friends who stick together when the journey is tough. 
We've tried to fill this website with information that provides for practical needs of those feeling vulnerable and offer ways for all of us to learn and share together.  If you or someone you love is in need, click on any of the coloured links below to check out our resources or contact our office for further information.    

We've loaded this website with lots of  helpful information for you as you take steps towards making important changes in your life. Browse around the site and anywhere you see a  coloured link that interests you, click on it and you're likely to find some helpful information or an encouraging story.
