Hope on Wheels
Hope on Wheels addresses a critical transportation gap for individuals in residential recovery.
By establishing an on-site automotive maintenance facility, Hand Up Ministries reduces downtime, controls repair costs, safety, and ensures consistent access to employment and healthcare.
The program combines infrastructure investment, equipment sponsorship, and long-term vehicle sustainability to support measurable outcomes including job retention, appointment compliance, and program completion.
