With over 20 years of experience providing reentry services in Northeast Florida, Operation New Hope is a leader in the field. United by the belief that we all have the power to change our lives for better, we enjoy broad bipartisan support. Our work has been praised by the last four White House Administrations, as well as federal, state, and local representatives, law enforcement officers, and business leaders.

"Support second chances for economic success."

President-Elect, November 2020

Ready4Work is a "model program not only in Florida but for the United States."

Vice President Visit, July 2019

"When you compare Operation New Hope's recidivism rate to the State's overall, it's about 1/3 of what it would be absent this [Ready4Work] program. That's the type of metrics we want to support."

Florida Governor Visit, July 2019

"All of us have beauty and goodness inside. We should not let anything or anybody tell us otherwise."

Dr. Makaziwe Mandela, July 2019

"I've looked at a lot of programs across the country, I don't think there is any better than this (Ready4Work)"

HUD Secretary Visit, March 2018

“There are millions of Americans who share a similar view of their faith and feel they have an obligation to help others and are making a difference in communities all across this country – through initiatives like Ready4Work, which is helping ensure that ex-offenders don’t return to a life of crime.”

President on Faith & Community, July 2008
