The team behind our HOPE Intensive Case Management (ICM) program at The Conference.

Our HOPE team works closely with individuals experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness who are also living with a qualifying mental health diagnosis. Through ongoing support and connection to community resources, the team helps clients navigate housing, treatment, employment, transportation, benefits, and other essential needs.

We’re extremely grateful for our HOPE team and all they do to support the individuals we serve every day! ❤️
