Our Clients

The individuals and families we serve may be the parents-to-be you saw walking downtown who came to Helping Hands for an ultrasound and left feeling supported. The woman you ran into at the grocery store who came to Helping Hands seeking safety from an abusive situation and is feeling hopeful for the first time in a long time. The dad pumping gas next to you, who stepped through the doors of Helping Hands to find support and mentorship from a father-figure he didn't have growing up. The child that plays on the playground with your own, who decided Helping Hands is a safe place. Our point is, the individuals and families we have the opportunity to serve through Helpings Hands are no strangers to you. We hope that through our programs and services, we can help create a stronger, healthier community one family at a time!
