The HHV Board of Directors has dissolved Habitat & Hope Village, Inc., effective December 31, 2022. As a local 501(c)3 non-profit, HHV has been worked for years to end homelessness in the Salem, Oregon area. Individual board members will continue to support Salem’s unsheltered communities. Working together we will solve this problem.

The mission of HHV has been to provide transitional housing for people without shelter in the Salem area, each of whom is a spiritual person of worth and dignity and deserving of assistance. Our vision has been to set individuals and families free from homelessness, to help them become physically and spiritually healthy, and equip them to participate in society and sustain permanent housing. We will continue to help those who have been abused and neglected to find a better life.

Most recently HHV has constructed mobile shower & laundry trailers for residents in Salem’s micro-shelter communities. Those trailers have been donated to Church at the Park, a local 501(c)3 non-profit with a history of serving the unsheltered in Salem, and currently managing micro-shelter communities.

Its website statement reflects that its activities fit well with HHV’s mission and vision: “Church at the Park (C@P) has been serving our unsheltered neighbors since 2007. C@P seeks the mutual transformation of unsheltered people, our staff, and our volunteers through relationships, agency partnerships, and tangible resources. As the capital of Oregon, Salem is a central hub in the state for those experiencing homelessness, incarceration, and mental illness. C@P seeks to be a peacemaker in our city through the provision of low barrier shelter, person-centered navigation services, and workforce development.” Please support Church at the Park online here.

A big “Thank You” to everyone that has supported HHV over the years. You have made a positive difference in the lives of some of our most vulnerable neighbors.
