  • About The Centers’ H.O.P.E. Campus

    The Centers’ H.O.P.E. Campus (Healing, Optimism, Partnership, and Enrichment) is a bold and evolving initiative of The Centers, serving as a hub for child welfare transformation in Cuyahoga County and a growing model for communities across the state. Rooted in trauma-informed care, cross-system collaboration, and a deep commitment to the best interests of the child, The Centers’ H.O.P.E. Campus is designed to meet the urgent needs of children and families in crisis, particularly multi-system youth navigating behavioral health, developmental disability, juvenile justice, and child welfare systems.

    As a critical resource for The Division of Children and Family Services and community partners, we provide emergency response, stabilization, and residential programming for youth facing the most complex placement challenges. Our role is both responsive and proactive, serving as a stopgap in the immediate youth placement crisis while also building long-term, sustainable solutions.

    The Centers’ H.O.P.E. Campus is in motion. We are actively renovating our physical space and simultaneously designing new programming that reflects the most emergent needs in our community. There is not always a playbook, because we are writing it. That means we welcome staff who are flexible, creative, and eager to help shape something new.

    But no one is doing this alone.

    We walk alongside our staff just as we do our youth, providing a highly supportive, team-oriented environment. We understand the challenges of working in an evolving system, and we are committed to ensuring that all staff have the training, tools, and guidance they need to thrive. We invest deeply in learning and development and foster a culture where innovation is not just welcomed, but expected.

    Working at The Centers’ H.O.P.E. Campus means being part of something bigger than a program, it means contributing to the reimagining of child welfare. It’s challenging work, but it is meaningful, and you will never be asked to do it alone. Together, we are creating a new standard of care, one centered in healing, partnership, and possibility.
