Hoff Foundation
Second chances for every woman
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
We only lack the financial ability to expand our well designed women's services. Our method and processes are able to scale much higher than current size. This will permit us to go from 5 to 7-days per week breakfast and lunch served, 40 to 200 women served each day and 10 to 120 children served, daily. Also, added income will give us the boost to launch our new 26-week mentorship program, shift from a monthly to a weekly vocational curriculum with New day Cafe and open 3 new houses for women in transition.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Esther's Place
The services provided at Esther’s place are accessible to women and their children who are in a variety of challenging circumstances. Homeless, domestic violence survivors, recovering drug users are just some of the clients that utilize this low-barrier facility.
Queen It's a New Day
A special event for women who are not homeless but in transition from sex trafficking, transitional living, and abuse. Queen participants must have been clean and sober for 30 days, and involved in some type of helping or recovery program. The women who participate are set up for success. The program includes a makeover, job readiness training, professional clothing, and resources.
New Creation Communities
Housing is the greatest need for women and children. Many have fled from abuse and are homeless, sleeping in cars. Others are fresh out of jail or leaving other programs and need support in their process for long term recovery.
We offer at the house, wrap around services:
(1) Case management for individual programs.
(2) Life skills classes, recovery groups and mentorship.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
To break the cycle of generational dysfunction which can lead to a lifestyle of sex trafficking, the misuse of drugs & alcohol, homelessness, and abuse. 1) feed women and children daily, 2) advocate, guide and counsel women to use community resources, 3) mentor and train women to gainful employment and successful lifestyle and 4) teach each woman how to add back to our community effort
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
1) grow Esther's place to feed, clothe and equip women each week 2) connect local businesses with Hoff Foundation to catalyze women's services 3) grow our donor base through marketing and local business involvement 4) provide a physical place where women can experience a second chance
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We have offices in Everett for business meetings and Esther's place daily services. A board of 7 people from various business areas oversee and guide the Hoff activities.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
In our 19+ years of quality women's services to Snohomish County, we have grown offerings to a daily basis. We span vocational, mental health, physical health advocacy, connect women with 20+ community opportunities and provide a base of support for over 1100 women per month. Next, we seek to scale up our activities to offer enhanced services to a wider region in Western Washington.
