About Us

The Hope Institute for Children and Families Mission:

To support children and families to reach optimum growth, independence and joy.

At The Hope Institute for Children and Families, everything we do is designed to help children with intellectual, emotional and behavioral disorders achieve their maximum benefit and full potential.  We do this by providing services based on the best practices in residential, educational, and health and wellness services.  Our goal is to reach children before they require residential services, but if residential services are necessary to do the best to help the children we serve achieve safety, joy and growth.

We provide these services through six Centers of Hope:

• The Hope School Learning Center
• The Hope Center for Residential Services
• The Hope Health and Wellness Center
• The Hope Institute Learning Academy
• The Autism Program of Illinois
• Noll Medical Pavilion
