Empowering single women for a better life

HEALING. HOPE. RENEWAL.

At Fresh Hope, we seek to empower single women who are struggling to make changes in their lives to overcome their challenges, build resilience, and achieve their goals.

Fresh Hope is a hands-on, hand-in-hand program that is a “hand up”…not a “handout.” It is designed for women who are seeking a fresh start and are ready to work harder than they have ever worked – but need some help getting started.

Many of these women are Christ-followers, some very new in the faith. Some are Christ-seekers and some have never considered that Jesus Christ might be interested in their lives. Our prayer to God is that they will see His hand behind our outstretched hand…that God’s powerful hands will accomplish what His Helping Hands could never dream of doing, and that these women will grasp His hand, as well.

About Us

Fresh Hope is designed for single women who are struggling to make positive changes in their lives. This may include challenges related to their health, career, relationships, personal growth, and overall well-being.

We recognize that making changes can be difficult, especially for those who are navigating life on their own. Our program aims to provide support, guidance, and resources to help these women overcome their challenges and achieve their goals.

We offer a variety of tools and strategies to help participants identify the root causes of their struggles, develop new habits and behaviors, and build a strong support system to help them stay on track. We also provide access to coaches, mentors, or other experts in relevant fields who can offer personalized guidance and support.

In addition, our program offers opportunities for community building and networking with other single women who are facing similar challenges. This can help women feel less isolated and more motivated to make positive changes in their lives.

Program Details

Fresh Hope offers help with job search, educational goals for those who need a GED or a marketable skill, counseling, and seminars on various life skill topics in a 4-month program. There is no fee for this program. The women who benefit the most from what Fresh Hope has to offer are those who have been hit by life and are feeling stuck – but are also highly motivated to find a better way for themselves.

Throughout the year, we offer six 4-month programs. Each 4-month program is setup to meet weekly either on a Tuesday or Thursday, with 2 different class times that you can choose to attend – 1pm to 3pm, or 7pm to 9pm. Free childcare is available – however, transportation is the responsibility of the attendee.
