What does Team HOPE do for fun? Quote that reflects your team? What else would you like to share about your team?
HOPE social workers also know how to have fun—potlucks, funny stories, and a virtual party here and there. We host monthly celebrations where we come together to appreciate all the wonderful things our team does for each other and for the Veterans we serve.
HOPE social workers are change agents and they bring to mind this quote: “Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.” — Barack Obama
