Our mission is to reduce recidivism and transform lives through providing culturally relevant services.

Hope Lives - Vive La Esperanza is a Peer/Community Run Organization and is a 501(c) 3 non-profit established in 2010.


Our Vision:

Our vision is a world where every individual, regardless of their involvement in the justice system, mental health status, or challenges with addiction have the opportunity to surpass their recovery goals and lead transformed, empowered lives.


Our Values:

1. Cultural Competency & Responsibility: We are dedicated to understanding and honoring the diverse backgrounds and experiences of those we serve. Hope Lives is committed to acting with cultural responsibility, ensuring our support is respectful, inclusive, and tailored to meet the unique needs of every individual in our community.

2. Justice & Advocacy: We champion the rights and well-being of every individual, aiming to build a world where equity is not just an ideal, but a lived reality. We are dedicated to supporting and advocating for those impacted by the justice system, mental health challenges, and/or addiction, believing firmly in the potential for transformative change.

3. Empathy & Acceptance: We provide a safe space where all individuals are welcomed and supported without judgment. Our approach is grounded in understanding and compassion, ensuring that everyone feels valued and heard.

4. Empowerment: We believe empowerment is a tool for personal and collective growth. Our programs and interactions are designed to enable individuals to discover their strengths, make informed decisions, and take control of their journeys with confidence and dignity.

5. Community: Our strength lies in our community. We foster a sense of belonging and connection, where peer support is based on mutual respect, shared experiences, and the collective pursuit of well-being.
