About us
WHO WE ARE: Hope Network is a non-profit organization operating across the state of Michigan. We have 240 locations and serve over 34,000 people with disabilities or disadvantages each and every year. WHAT WE DO: We help people overcome physical, mental or social barriers that impact how they live. The result is fulfillment through independence, progress, and community integration. Whether it’s… …a dad recovering from a brain injury …a child growing up with autism …an ex-offender trying to re-enter society …a teenager battling depression We have countless stories of restoration to tell. HOW WE DO IT: For over 60 years, we’ve provided neuro rehabilitation, behavioral healthcare, developmental support services, autism services, community support, and more. We do this because we believe every person was created to live life to the fullest – no matter their age, no matter their background, no matter what’s holding them back. WHY IT MATTERS: 60 million people in the U.S. suffer from disabilities or disadvantages that impact how they live. Over one million of these people live in Michigan. To put it into perspective, that’s more than the population of Detroit. A majority have fallen through the cracks and aren’t receiving the care they deserve. That’s a problem – but we’re solving it by being advocates for these people. hopenetwork.org | 800.695.7273

We had an awesome Mental Health First Aid training last week (just check out the video below!) with the Grand Rapids Police Department, and since then many have asked how to schedule an MHFA training for their own organization. Just email MHFA@hopenetwork.org to start the conversation and we can tailor something to your needs! #MentalHealth #MentalHealthFirstAid

We are so grateful to Tanger Outlets Grand Rapids for consulting with our specialists at Hope Network’s Center for Autism (CFA) in the design for the TangerKids Sensory Garden, which aims to create an inclusive space for all guests. The TangerKids Sensory Garden offers non-toxic plants, paved walkways, and aspects guests can see, smell, touch and hear. “We appreciated the opportunity to preview the plans for the new sensory garden,” Margaret Moore, the executive director for Hope Network’s Center for Autism, said in a release. “We’re happy the community has a safe, inclusive space for all to enjoy at Tanger Grand Rapids.” Following a ribbon-cutting ceremony on June 20th, Tanger Outlets presented the CFA with a $1,000 donation to help further Hope Network’s commitment to inclusivity for all. Thank you to Tanger Outlets Grand Rapids for your generous support!
