When people feel appreciated, when they feel connected,  when they feel loved, hope is given a chance to flourish.

Sacrifice.  Compassion.  Appreciation.  Hope.  Healing.
There is a light that shines in some people compelling them to set aside their own fears and reservations, while selflessly they run directly into tragedy and crisis situations. Why do they do this? Because someone needs their help. They are our healthcare providers, our EMT’s, our clergy, our police, our firefighters, our mental healthcare providers, our teachers, and our military service people. These people face danger head-on, without regret of consequence. These people serve us with the highest level of sacrifice every single day. These people are Compassionate Responders and these are the people we intend to support.

Our Purpose
​A Place for Hope and Healing’s sole purpose is to reach out to these Compassionate Responders and do two things:
  1. Help them all to experience our appreciation and encouragement.
  2. Help those whose hope may be wavering, to feel restored and hopeful again.
These Compassionate Responders see too much, know too much, and in spite of attempts at self-care, they carry burdens that the majority of us would not be able to carry. They deserve to not just be “fine”, but to be “great” and their families and those they love, deserve for them to be healthy, to live hopeful lives and not lives with any hint of despair or hopelessness.

Because they are there to save us, protect us, and carry us through difficult times, ​we all should be there for them and be bold to walk alongside them when they need someone to be there.
