Founded in 2021 as the BIPOC Graduation Support Network, Rox of Hope has evolved from a grassroots initiative into a trusted community resource dedicated to breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for growth, healing, and leadership. Through culturally grounded programs and an unwavering commitment to equity, we support individuals while transforming communities.
Our approach focuses on creating sustainable change by addressing root causes, empowering communities, and delivering compassionate solutions.
