Our Board of Directors has just released our 2019-2022 strategic plan to enhance our organization and support our mission to provide a non-judgmental home with compassionate care for people living with HIV.
In its 25th year serving people living with HIV, Hope House is seeking outstanding individuals to start as Care Partners for various shifts throughout the week.
Each year on the first Monday in August, Hope House takes over the St. Croix River! The Scott Zahren Memorial Cruise – Cruize for a Cauze, is a casual cocktail affair with live music, dinner, and dancing.
Started in 1991, Hope House is an Adult Foster Care Organization that provides services to persons living with HIV who otherwise could not live independently.
Hope House of St. Croix Valley was founded in 1991 by two St. Croix Valley residents, Teresa and Casey vanderBent. Their research on AIDS housing found that people living with AIDS were an almost invisible group receiving the least amount of services in Washington County and that Minnesotans with AIDS had few housing opportunities. In April 1991, a Board of Directors was formed, reflecting the organization’s strong community support. Hope House of St. Croix Valley was incorporated on May 7, 1991 and was granted tax-exempt status on September 30, 1991.
