Notes de l'éditeur
- Since 1968, Focus: Hope has been dedicated to intelligent and practical solutions to the communities issues of hunger, economic disparity, inadequate education, and racial divisiveness. The mission is simply stated to build a community where all people may live freely together. Focus hope has been a leader in community development and engagement since its founding
- A cornerstone of Focus: Hope’s success has been the organization’s ability to meet the needs of the community while aligning itself with key constituents who have the ability of either their time, talents or financial resources to ensure the longevity of this vital community asset. Key partnerships with universities, industry leaders and other nonprofit organizations have allowed focus hope to substantially improve the quality of life for those its serves
- Focus Hope knows it’s community and it’s community’s core needs The organization has made forming alliances and providing necessary job training its focus since its inception Technology and its contributions to the future have been embraced The organization also confronts the daily struggles of those its serves and seeks to provide financial and adult literacy programs to empower the community to reach new goals and achieve their dreams Focus Hope is realistic and knows that it will not be successful unless it is able to provide the community with tutors and mentors who have already overcome typical barriers to persona success
- There are incredible barriers to success. Lack of jobs, sustainable funding and lack of innovation have all contributed a stagnant and ever-increasing sense of Focus Hope being out of touch with the community it claims to serve.
- Focus Hope is not stagnate, as the needs of the community evolve, so do the practices of the organization Detroit’s economy has been in crisis mode for years. The organization recognizes the most urgent needs for machinists, engineers, accountants, and healthcare professionals such as nurses Additionally, the community will not be successful or complete without skilled tradespeople. Focus Hope will continue its training and seek to enrich it’s curriculum to offer the most up-to-date training to all who seek to pursue a profession within the trades Focus Hope has vision. The organization knows that while baby boomers are staying in the job market longer than their parent’s, when they do retire, their knowledge is vital and relevant. Therefore, the organization will actively recruit volunteers and mentors from this generation.
- The reality of the community is Unemployment is at an all-time high. The City is bankrupt and organizations like Focus Hope must come together to offer their assistance and guidance Universities are looking for new partners and programs to also assist the community. Focus Hope must be seen as the community leader it is and the natural partner for each these higher education institutions. Detroit did not just one day go bankrupt, there is a history of complacency that must be corrected. There are more un-experienced workers today than ever before. Focus Hope must reach out to these markets to encourage continuing education and career advancement Focus hope is a community resource that has been around for nearly 45 year. It must align itself with other organizations who may have more capacity to deliver specific services. These partnerships will allow focus hope to better deliver the services it does best to community. Focus Hope must become a true resource center for the community.
- Going forward, we recommend focus hope to consolidate its efforts to concentrate on three primary program offerings The Education and training program The Food Program And Community Development
- Focus Hope must be the bridge in the community. By reaching out to key partners and forming strategic alliances, focus hope will be able to guide the future of the community The community must know Focus Hope is here to stay and is willing to adapt to meet the most urgent needs of the community. There is duplicative action within the organization and community. Focus Hope must be the leader and seek to form partnerships with organizations who are better positioned to implement some of the community services needed. No one organization can do it all. However, one organization, focus hope, can be the link and new resource center for the community.
- Times have changes since 1968 and focus hope needs to meet those new needs and change with the times. To do that, we recommend new outreach to partners who can provide education programs to meet the future job placement demand. Not just educational need is changing. Focus hope must acknowledge the business climate and its evolution within the community. Healthcare, technology and security sectors are seeing dramatic increases and the organization is primed to transition to meet those needs.
- Focus Hope cannot do all the work it must alone. A rebust volunteer recruitment and development plan must be implemented. By actively recruiting more skilled volunteers, the organization will be able to better meet the needs of the community while lowering their operating expenses Again, not one organization can do it all. Focus hope must transition form primary program implementation to an organization that brings the community together in its most true sense. Focus Hope must become a resource center and evaluate programs that may be better implemented in other partner organizations.
- Focus Hope will remain is community resource as it STRENGTHENs is alliances, INCREASES its base of support (both material and human) and MANAGES its ability to opperate
- It is our VISION for the future to better meet the current needs of the community and ensure a long-lasting pipeline of success.
