Hope Services
More than 70 years ago, a group of parents of children with special needs felt their kids deserved the same opportunities as everyone else.
Among their earliest achievements was opening a preschool for these children, which later grew to be Hope.

Music has a way of reaching people when nothing else can. It heals, it connects, and it gives us hope, and that's exactly what Hope Through Music is all about.
The New Hope Band gave everything they had, and the crowd felt every bit of it. The room was alive with warmth and joy the kind you can only get from live music. Seeing familiar faces alongside new ones made the day even more special!
Thank you to everyone who showed up and supported Hope Services! We are so lucky to have a community like this. 💛
Already counting down to next year.
Our Innovate with Hope event explored that question through meaningful conversations, inspiring stories, and real examples of how innovation can create opportunity, strengthen communities, and improve lives.
Highlights included an incredible performance by the New Hope Band, music from DJ Mattattack, Calian's inspiring family triumphs story, and a memorable conversation with 49ers legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer Patrick Willis.
If you missed the event—or want to relive some of its most memorable moments—watch our recap video and see how leaders, innovators, and community members came together to explore a future where innovation works for everyone.
A heartfelt thank you to our sponsors, attendees, speakers, volunteers, and partners who made this event such a tremendous success. Watch the highlights and join us in continuing the conversation about innovation, hope, and opportunity for all.

Thank you to NBC Bay Area for featuring Hope Services in a news story highlighting the growing challenges facing inclusive employment programs and the importance of creating meaningful workforce opportunities for people with disabilities. The segment spotlighted Hope Services' long-standing partnership with J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines, where individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities have successfully built careers and contributed to the workforce for more than two decades.
The story also raised awareness about the risks facing disability employment programs and the barriers many job seekers with disabilities continue to encounter. At a time when employment opportunities for people with disabilities are under increasing pressure, this coverage helps elevate the conversation around the importance of inclusive hiring and workforce development.
We are deeply grateful to NBC Bay Area for shining a light on this important issue and providing a platform to advocate for work opportunities, stronger employer partnerships, and greater investment in programs that help people with disabilities achieve their employment goals.
A special thank you to NBC Bay Area and J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines for helping advance the conversation around disability inclusion in the workplace. Watch the story below and help us spread the message that everyone deserves the opportunity to work, contribute, and thrive.

Since joining Hope in 2022, Jesse Ross has been on a remarkable journey, and we couldn't be prouder of how far he has come.
When Jesse first arrived, speaking up didn't come easy. Today, he engages with confidence, advocates for himself, and has built genuine, lasting friendships along the way. Known for his kind and considerate nature, Jesse brings a quiet warmth to everyone around him.
Outside of programming, Jesse is passionate about puzzles, Sonic, and One Piece. Over time, he has also made meaningful strides in stepping outside of his comfort zone — becoming more engaged with others and the activities around him with each passing month.
What has set Jesse apart is his consistency and dedication. Every Wednesday, without fail, he showed up to job class asking thoughtful questions, following up diligently, and checking in on his progress. That kind of commitment speaks volumes.
And now, it has paid off in the best way possible.
🎉 Please join us in congratulating Jesse on his newest milestone: he is now an official employee at the Naval Postgraduate School! Jesse has taken on his role with tremendous drive, patience, and a true willingness to learn. His journey is a powerful reminder of what becomes possible when determination meets opportunity.
We are so incredibly proud of you, Jesse. This is just the beginning. 💙
