Give Thanks

  There is so much to be thankful for this holiday season. We are thankful for our staff at HopeTree Academy. The highly educated teachers spend countless hours preparing lessons and teaching a demanding population that requires the most sincere dedication. They prepare our young residents to be intelligent, unique, hard-working individuals in a challenging world.

  We are thankful for all the cottage counselors on our Salem campus as well as our two WOODS programs. Their commitment to guide and supervise our residents helps to shape them into fine young men and women. They spend long, thankless days trying to make a difference in a young person's life. Our residents are better people because of you.

  We are thankful for all the social workers in Residential Care, Foster Care & Adoption, and WOODS. Your demanding jobs require long hours and endless paperwork. All of your hard work does not go unnoticed.

  We are thankful for all of our DDM direct support staff. The time you spend with our DDM residents truly makes a difference in their lives. You provide fun, guidance,  and meaning to their lives.

  Lastly, we are thankful for all of our supporters. All of your prayers, gifts, and donations make it possible for us to continue to provide the love and support that all of our residents need. We couldn't do this without you.

Thank you and have a happy Thanksgiving.
