FaithBridge HOPES Framework

We will be scheduling our Fall Policy Circles to co-create strategies and solutions to realize our HOPES. More information to come!

Housing solutions that prevent displacement of neighbors and facilitate the diversification of neighborhoods to ensure the intentional integration of our living and learning spaces.

Opportunities for students that help to expand their vision of what is possible by intentionally and regularly exposing them to college, careers, and cultures and concerns beyond their own.

Policies, practices, and personnel that break structures and systems of oppression and therefore empower communities to co-create and sustain solutions that align with liberation, justice, equity, joy and the fulfillment of our shared hopes.

Equitable & excellent education for every child in welcoming, liberated, life-giving, and loving learning spaces that prepare them to live their dreams and to make a positive difference in the world.

Supportive and safe communities that ensure the total wellness of students, their families, and all neighbors by increasing and strengthening protective factors and proactively eliminating risk factors.

Our FAITHBRIDGE systems SHIFT model

For us, it is about RELATIONSHIPS, RESOURCES, REPRESENTATION, and RESULTS to shift mindsets to ensure an equitable and excellent education for every child.
