Home & Hope is a nonprofit organization providing shelter and integrated services to homeless families in San Mateo County. Based in Burlingame, California, the program offers overnight shelter, three daily meals, case management, mentorship, employment support, job search assistance, resume help, educational support, housing search help, and access to a day center, kitchen, showers, bathrooms, and a computer suite, available to guests around the clock at no cost. The model centers on treating homeless families as guests and engages local faith congregations to host volunteers, enabling a community-based approach to service delivery. The organization supports families by offering practical resources and guidance aimed at achieving self-sufficiency, with a notable outcome that about half of participating families move directly from emergency shelter to permanent housing. Home & Hope serves families across the region and operates within the individual and family services sector.
