Parent Perspective

Girls Hope is dedicated to helping each scholar maintain a healthy relationship with her parent or guardian.   The staff partners with parents to help move their daughters toward positive, successful futures. Parents continue direct communication with their child, and regular home visits are part of the program.

Here are a few quotes from parents of our scholars:

“I was afraid our bond would be lost. That has not happened.  In fact, I think it feels stronger.”

“I am very involved with every part of my daughter’s life. I still have great influence, and that really matters to both of us.”

“Some of my friends did not help me. They had strong opinions but didn’t have to make the final decision about Girls Hope. I am so glad that I did not let them overly control my choice because I probably would not have let her go, and that would have been a huge mistake.”

“Just know that I would absolutely do it again.”

“We have good visits, and she tells me everything that is going on in her life.  She also calls me on the phone almost every day so I feel that I am very much a part of her life.”
