Our Origin Story

Hope Rising Washington is a movement to implement the power and science of Hope. Based off pioneering work of Hope Rising Oklahoma, we believe that Hope has the power to improve the lives of people, the cultures of organizations and bring about systems change. Our work began with trainings and awareness events which become collaborative learning communities and solidified deep commitments to do better by Washington youth and families. We want to thank Hope Rising Oklahoma for showing Washington State a pathway forward and empowering us to create a Hope Centered Washington.
