Hope Now serves young men who want to break ties with gangs and turn their lives around.
For many young men, growing up in Fresno means survival. Rampant gangs, violence, crime, drugs, prison, poverty, broken homes, and lack of education almost ensure most won’t see their 21st birthday. Many desire a way out, but don’t see much hope outside the streets.
We exist to bring a real, solid hope to these young men's lives. We come alongside them as family, guides, father figures, and friends, because we know it takes a huge investment. By modeling Christian values with a professional work ethic, over 2,500 men are overcoming their troubled pasts and now building bright futures for themselves, their families, and our city.
