Thank you Greater Hope for supporting families in our communities. I have attended some of the parents support groups and every time I've came out learning something new, I've enjoyed learning tips from the dedicated… staff as well as other parents that have gone through what I have. Its nice to know that there is an organization that is there to help us out.

A greater hope is a great organization that has helped my family thrive and get through some hard times. Without the help of the wonderful people working there who took the time to talk with me during some trying times… my daughter and I would not have made it by ourselves. The food boxes, school supplies and clothing were a blessing. I grateful for Illiyana and Sarah. They made it easy for me to ask for help.

A Greater Hope is a great organization, especially the teams at the Victorville and Barstow office. They consistently go above and beyond for the children and families they serve. The team that I work with is remarkably… attentive, taking the time to truly listen, understand the kids individual needs and mines as well, and respond with care. They are incredibly helpful and offer support that makes me feel confident and never alone. What stands out most is how resourceful they are when it comes to finding solutions, offering tools to help with having a better understanding through challenging situations. Above all, their deep care for the children is unmistakable. Every interaction reflects compassion, patience, and a genuine commitment to each child’s well‑being

I love all the programs they offer

I been with this agency sense my family became a foster family around little over 4 years ago.. they help y so many ways…

I have been fostering youth for a little over two years through a greater hope and they always make sure the kids have everything they need. They have back to school events, regular giveaways, and all kinds of fun… events for the youth, like a free dodgers game event which my teen really had fun at and a digital bridge program that provided them with free electronics for school and a course on online safety. They provide therapy services, educational courses and events for both foster parents and youth. They work with the kids pretty much weekly to make sure they are receiving the care they need. Yes, the application process might seem like a long hassle and the regular checks might seem like a lot but everything they do is in the best interest of the youth, which is what a foster agency should be about.
