H O P E for Sunny Skies

Our primary organizational goal is to set measurable and attainable objectives to address the immediate needs of families in the Fort Bend area and to support other programs and services so that we help enrich the lives of the parents and children we serve and help to end the cycle of child abuse.

Our second goal is two-fold in that we will provide the community with a successful and sustainable program that will serve as a constant resource for parents and caregivers who are in need high-quality parenting classes, free of charge. Additionally, we will serve as a point of reference for those parents who need access to other resources and programs to help ameliorate the stressors that often lead to child abuse.

Our third goal is to expand and provide our curriculum and best practices to other local providers and most importantly the Department of Family and Protective Services so that we build a rapport with DFPS and grow our organization while keeping our services free of charge to our clients. Our goal is to be considered vital to families and children involved in the system and garner contracts with the Department, as parenting classes are vital to court ordered services.

We will implement these strategies by connecting with local community partners who feel that there is a need for or organization just as we do. We will then measure or methods to ensure that our goals continue to be met. We will also collaborate with larger organizations and allow them to implement our programs as additional support to the communities we will serve.

Our organization has spoken with several community organizations such as CPS Program Directors and Supervisors, Child Advocates of Fort Bend Management Staff (CASA) , the Pregnancy Resource Center, and The City of Rosenberg Parks and Recreations. All of these organizations fully support our efforts, they have expressed their interest in the program, they are excited about our organization and its services.

We have created a program based on 10 years of research and observation of the CPS system and the current services they provide to parents. We feel that our unique intensive parenting course with "aftercare" such as interactive baby monitoring, and parent/child visitation coaching will guarantee the success of this program and organization. We have hosted several community events in order to get future clients familiarized with our organization and services that will be available to them in the near future.
