Across the Deep South, generations of resilient public servants, artists and business leaders have broken barriers, distinguishing themselves, while making life better for others. In a region marked by entrenched economic, racial and social disparities, HOPE taps into this wellspring of determination, innovation and courage to fulfill our mission.

HOPE is especially proud to work alongside and continue the legacy of countless barrier breakers, including those who are longtime leaders and those of the next generation. Together, we are the barrier breakers for this time.
