About

HopeWorks is one of the largest homeless service providers in New Mexico. Every year, almost 8,500 men, women, and children come through our doors seeking day shelter, housing, and mental/behavioral health services.
About Us
HopeWorks’ superpowers are its employees and its clients. Every single person who comes to work here has been called to help and often has an intimate connection to our mission. Every client who walks through our doors has a story of resilience and power to be admired. It takes bravery to say, “I need help,” and vulnerability to say, “Will you help me?”
HopeWorks was founded in 1985 by the Episcopal community, who saw a need that looked much different than today. Back then, providing meals was most important, and many of the folks coming in only needed temporary help to get back on their feet.
Today, the problem is more complicated, and therefore the “solution” isn’t simple or quick. It requires a multi-pronged approach, over time, and must be infused with a lot of sensitivity, compassion, and forgiveness.
HopeWorks employs a workforce of nearly 100 of the most dedicated people on Earth. Our budget is approximately $9 million, and we operate a myriad of programs at the highest level, designed to address complex challenges people who are experiencing homelessness often face. In fact, much of our programming is nationally known, duplicated, and recognized.
