Restore Hope Arkansas

Our mission is to reduce incarceration and the need for foster care through collaborative partnerships. We do this utilizing our Crisis to Career model and our collaborative case management system, which allows for effective partnerships between agencies and community service providers, resulting in significantly better outcomes for communities. Our three initiatives with proven results: 100 Families This initiative helps families move from crisis to career, using existing community resources, by engaging community partners, training agencies on a collaborative case management system, and recruiting case managers to respond when a family is in crisis. Alternative Sentencing This program is an opportunity to interrupt the destructive patterns of behavior by engaging individuals in proven programs that prevent rearrest. Individuals with district court charges are given the choice to enter counseling and education programs in lieu of fines, community service, or jail time. Re-Entry This is a collaborative effort of government agencies, non-profits, and the business community working together to provide needed services to incarcerated individuals prior to and after their release.
