Hope 1312 Collective Scholarship

Hope 1312 Collective is a liaison between the church, the community, and the child welfare system. Through a variety of services, trainings, and resources, Hope 1312 Collective works to rewrite the story of child welfare by providing tangible Hope for children in hard places.

Hope 1312 Collective feels a responsibility to engage in the child welfare system and create lasting change in the lives of at-risk children in our community. Efforts for change were launched in 2014 by a small group of community members, social workers, foster parents, youth pastors, business executives, who were tired of seeing kids linger in the foster care system and kids from hard places continue to struggle to find Hope. Hope 1312 Collective wants to see resources leveraged for meaningful impact, see the church truly be the church, and lives changed through an encounter with Hope.

The Hope 1312 Collective has established this scholarship to support students impacted by their involvement in the child welfare system and those pursuing a career in the child welfare system.
