Alliance for HOPE International

What Alliance for HOPE International does

Alliance for HOPE International is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit systems and social change organization headquartered in San Diego, California, founded in 2003. It serves survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, elder abuse, and human trafficking, and the professionals who work with them, through six core programs: the Family Justice Center Alliance (which develops and supports a national network of 30 Family Justice Centers providing co-located, trauma-informed services), the Training Institute on Strangulation Prevention (specialized training for family violence professionals), Camp HOPE America (healing programs for children impacted by family trauma), DomesticShelters.org (a leading online resource directory), the VOICES Survivor Advocacy Network (community-based survivor advocacy), and the Justice Project (advocacy for families of domestic violence homicide victims). The organization also operates a resource library of over 700 expert-created resources, online courses, webinars, custom training and technical assistance services, and an annual International Family Justice Center Conference now in its 26th year.

The organization's technology footprint is centered on a web-based content, training, and resource delivery platform rather than a software product. Core digital assets include the DomesticShelters.org directory, online course infrastructure, webinar platforms, and a podcast (VOICES of HOPE). In 2025, the organization launched the Hope Rides program in partnership with Uber Technologies, providing free transportation to survivors across 12+ states, which has since facilitated over 2,000 rides covering 21,000+ miles and expanded the Family Justice Center network from 18 to 30 locations.

Alliance for HOPE International operates a diversified nonprofit revenue model comprising individual, corporate, and foundation donations; fees from training programs, technical assistance, and consulting services to organizations developing or enhancing Family Justice Centers; and conference and event registration fees. The customer base is highly fragmented: end users (survivors) receive services free of charge, while professional customers access training and resources on a distributed basis. Strategic commercial distribution channels include direct survivor services through the Family Justice Center network, the Hope Rides transportation partnership with Uber, self-serve online training and resource platforms, and in-person/virtual events.
