Duffy’s Hope Inc. is excited to announce the 2024 launch of our Transitional Residence Program to support young women, ages 18-23, who are transitioning out of Delaware’s foster care system. Thanks to a grant from New Castle County, our program—The H.O.P.E. (Housing Opportunity for Personal Enrichment) Program—aims to prevent youth homelessness by offering a safe, stable environment where each young woman can thrive.
Our mission with THP is to meet each young adult where they are, helping them build self-sufficiency through encouragement, stability, and a supportive community. With our unique approach to M.E.E.T.I.N.G.—Motivating, Educating, Empowering, Transforming, Inspiring, Nurturing, and Guiding—we offer resources and mentorship tailored to their needs during these critical years.
Through a 12-18 month journey, THP provides not only shelter but a network of professionals and community members committed to fostering growth, self-esteem, and independence. By creating meaningful relationships and listening to their voices, we empower each young woman to shape her path forward.
Our goal is simple yet profound: to give these young adults the foundation they need to transition confidently into adulthood. Through partnerships and collective efforts, we’ll provide opportunities for education, job preparation, mental and physical health support, and personal development—equipping each young woman for a bright future.
Their future, their voice. Together, we are building the foundation for success.
This program is funding by New Castle County.
