Get Involved with Chasing Hope House

At Chasing Hope House, we believe it truly takes a village to support young people facing housing instability and major life transitions. We invite you to join our mission by volunteering your time, skills, or expertise. Whether you’re passionate about mentoring, teaching life skills, supporting young parents, or assisting behind the scenes, there is a meaningful way for you to make a lasting impact in the lives of the youth we serve.

Why Volunteer?

Volunteering with Chasing Hope House allows you to:
  • Support Diverse Youth Needs: Make a direct impact on foster youth, youth experiencing or at risk of homelessness, and young parents ages 19 and under — including youth in both residential and non-residential programs.

  • Be Part of Stability & Growth: Help young people build life skills, confidence, and independence as they work toward education completion, employment, parenting success, and long-term stability.

  • Use Your Skills for Good: Share your time and talents through mentorship, workshops, program support, childcare assistance, and community engagement that creates real, lasting change.

  • Join a Mission-Driven Community: Become part of a compassionate team committed to meeting youth where they are and helping them move toward safer, stronger, and more self-sufficient futures in Stark County.
