About Hopewell Support Services

At Hopewell Support Services, we believe strong communities are built when people feel supported, included, and valued.

Every day, we work alongside individuals and families navigating life circumstances, offering housing support, social services, and connection to community. We know that access to safe housing and meaningful support can change the trajectory of someone’s life.

Our work is rooted in respect, compassion, and accountability. We believe in listening first, partnering with the community, and creating services that reflect the real experiences of the people we serve.

As we look to the future, we’re focused on deepening our impact while staying grounded in our values. Our Board of Directors plays an important role in helping ensure we remain thoughtful, financially sustainable, and responsive to the evolving needs of our community.

Who We’re Hoping to Welcome

We’re looking to grow our Board in a way that reflects the communities we serve and strengthens the perspectives around our table.

• Experience in Social Services or Human Services leadership


• Experience in Corporate fundraising, partnerships, or business development


• Experience in Housing and real estate


• Governance committee experience with interest in growing into a Director role

We are also intentionally seeking:

• Emerging or younger leaders


• Individuals with lived experience of disability


• People from diverse cultural and community backgrounds.

If you’re unsure whether your experience fits perfectly, we encourage you to reach out. Strong Boards benefit from diverse professional expertise, lived experience, and thoughtful voices.

What Board Service Looks Like

Board Directors provide governance and strategic oversight; this is not an operational role.

• Helping shape Hopewell’s long-term vision and strategic direction


• Ensuring strong financial stewardship and sustainability


• Participating in Board committees aligned with your interests or expertise


• Acting as ambassadors in the community


• Preparing for and attending regular Board meetings

Board terms are typically 3 years with meetings held 8 meetings annually between September and June.  Committee involvement and occasional community events are also part of the role.
