Community Programs / Client Services
The Beacon of Hope empowers islanders via its social service and community programs. We provide direct assistance to islanders who need it most. Clients seeking direct assistance must meet residency and income requirements and show just cause for financial hardship. Documentation will be collected to validate need.
The Beacon of Hopes community programs empower those who are seeking to improve their lives via education. GED and ESOL classes are ongoing and have worked to provide islanders with the skills to obtain better opportunities and employment.
The office is open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 9 am to 4 pm.
