Ray of Hope started in 1967, with a group of men, lead by a young baptist pastor, who had a vision of offering hope and support to men after serving prison sentences. They called their program "Ray of Hope". Today, Ray of Hope has multiplied many times over, but our passion and vision remain the same. We bring a Ray of Hope to a community of young men and women who have lost their way. Our Mission: To demonstrate the love of Christ with those who are disadvantaged, marginalized or troubled. Our Vision: People Investing in People - Inspiring Hope - Transforming Life. We operate through four key ministries: •Youth Justice Services •Youth Employment Services •Youth Addiction Services •Community Support Services Both our partnerships with federal, provincial & community organizations and the financial gifts of our sponsors enable us to provide life-transforming social services to young people and adults, helping them redirect their life journey and realize the potential God intended for them.
