Join Operation New Hope’s team, along with community partners and special guests, as we celebrate the opening of our new Space Coast office and our growing presence in Brevard County.
Guests will enjoy tours of our new facility, opportunities to connect with community members, and light refreshments. The event will also showcase Operation New Hope’s mission and impact across Brevard County and beyond as Florida’s Statewide Reentry Network.
Come learn more about the programs and services we provide, including career development training, case management, mental health services, transitional housing, and job coaching. For more than 26 years, Operation New Hope has been working across Florida to reduce recidivism, improve public safety, and build stronger communities and local economies.
All are welcome to attend! We encourage you to bring colleagues, friends, family, and fellow second-chance supporters.
Operation New Hope expanded to the Space Coast in August 2023 to address the need for reentry services in Brevard County, which has the 10th highest number of individuals returning from Florida state prisons. Through our Ready4Work program, returning citizens gain access to the tools, resources, and support needed to achieve self-sufficiency and reach their personal and professional goals — helping dramatically reduce recidivism in the communities we serve.
Previously, due to space limitations and growing client demand, our team operated across two adjacent buildings. As of mid-September, we are now fully open and operating under one roof at our new location. This larger, more accessible space allows us to deliver wraparound reentry services in a more unified environment, featuring an expanded career development classroom, technology lab, and improved visibility for both clients and the public.
By providing comprehensive training, counseling, housing support, and a strong network of community partnerships, Operation New Hope helps individuals not just return, but truly restart — building stronger families and safer communities throughout Brevard County.
Every week at our Space Coast site, a new class of clients returning from incarceration begin their yearlong Ready4Work journey. For the duration of the program, each participant receives holistic, individualized guidance from their dedicated Ready4Work team: a case manager, a job coach, and a licensed mental health therapist. These experienced professionals work closely with each client to ensure they receive the tools, care, and resources necessary to reconnect with the community, their family, and the workforce.

These interconnected strategies are proven to reduce recidivism, strengthen families, and create safer, more successful communities for all residents.
