Developing leaders. Creating lasting change.
At New Hope, we believe in equipping the next generation with tools for both today and tomorrow. Our youth and children’s programs nurture leadership, faith, life skills, and a sense of belonging. Through mentorship, education, and real-world preparation, we help young people grow with purpose.
CHILDREN OF HOPE
Children of Hope is a structured enrichment program for kids in Kindergarten through 8th grade. With a focus on character-building and leadership, children participate in group activities, creative projects, and faith-based learning. Many children begin their New Hope journey here—growing in confidence, compassion, and connection.
New Hope Teen Leaders
Our Teen Leaders program is a space for high school students to engage in real conversations, leadership development, and relationship-building. Teens meet twice a month for workshops, game nights, spiritual retreats, and practical training in things like resume writing, college prep, and teamwork.
Seniors are eligible for our annual scholarship essay contest. Upperclassmen can also apply to serve on the Youth Council, helping plan events and mentor younger students.
Leader Launch
Leader Launch is New Hope’s new workforce and mentorship initiative for young adults transitioning into the next stage of life.
Designed for recent high school graduates and college students, this paid internship program equips participants with hands-on experience, professional mentorship, and personalized support as they explore career paths, develop job skills, and take meaningful steps toward their futures.
Participants receive:
Paid, part-time internships (11–14 weeks)
One-on-one mentorship from caring adults
Real-world projects that build career-ready portfolios
Exposure to professional networks and career options
Support with resumes, interviews, and job placement
Leader Launch is about more than employment—it’s about identity, growth, and leadership from within our community.
