Our Philosophy
What do you do when everyone around you has 'counted you out' before life has had a chance to count you in? And all you want to do is figure out the 'why', but it's so far from your grasp? Children are not born, "at risk". When a child is at risk, the family is at risk. This is why at Ardyn Hope, we work with the community to assist at-risk families in need.
This is the fundamental concept of Ardyn Hope INC.
Through training, mentorship, workshops, local trips, and the slow, steady creation of stability, Ardyn Hope seeks to be a change agent to the community in which it serves. Ardyn Hope: A safe space for youth to dream
Our Mission is to cultivate and empower formal and informal community resources to shape a more holistic community. We believe that by surrounding resources in a young person's life, we can reinvigorate their sense of what is possible. By partnering with family members and community stakeholders a sustainable path to success and creativity in a young person's life can be created
