Hope Village II

A Pathway to Stability and A Foundation for a New Beginning

Launched in January 2024, Hope Village II is a cornerstone of Newark’s strategy to end chronic homelessness. Managed by UCC, this 20-bed transitional housing facility is designed for individuals facing limited access to housing.

Beyond transitional housing services, Hope Village II offers clients a wide range of services including:

Our dedicated staff helped guests obtain vital documents (such as IDs and birth certificates), restore lost benefits, and enroll in essential assistance programs.

We recognize that housing stability is closely tied to overall well-being. Through strong partnerships with local healthcare and social service agencies, our guests receive

Direct access to healthcare providers to manage chronic and acute conditions. 

Professional counseling and behavioral health services tailored to individual needs.

Compassionate pathways to recovery and long-term sobriety support.

Why Hope Village II Exists

Hope Village II provides more than just a safe place to sleep; it provides the structure, dignity, and professional support necessary to navigate the journey back to a permanent home.

Cumulative
Impact

Since opening its doors, Hope Village II has become a critical resource for our city’s most vulnerable residents.


Hope Village II last year provided safe, stable housing for more than 20 individuals who previously had no fixed address, offering them a vital “breathing room” to focus on their future, also accomplishing a nearly 40% success rate in moving our clients into permanent housing.
