Resolving Conflict & Transforming Lives, Since 1996hands for hope
We provide crisis intervention and hardship services for struggling, low-income children, families, elderly, disabled, and local neighbors. We offer conflict resolution, distributions, and utility assistance outreach.
Our Emergency and Energy Relief Assistance project (EERA) was developed during COVID-19 and expanded due to its high demand. Funding for the EERA was provided by a Small and Mighty grant of The Pittsburgh Foundation.
