Since 1981, Hands of Hope Tucson, through love and faith, has advocated for the health and care of women and those with unexpected pregnancies. For nearly 35 years, our commitment has been to teach that every human life has value.

From 106 clients in 1981 to nearly 2,000 each year, we continue to offer hope and provide care to those facing pregnancy decisions, to those who are struggling with a past abortion experience, and to those on our school campuses who are struggling to make healthy life choices. We provide the support they’ll need to make informed decisions.

Our name, Hands of Hope Tucson, reflects our unconditional acceptance of those who come and the message of hope we provide. Our staff of 15 and dozens of volunteers are a part of the heart transforming work God is doing in our city.

We are Christ-centered and believe that through His work we will make a difference. With your help we have created a safe place where people in need receive support, information and guidance. They use the truths shared to make their personal, informed choice without coercion. Hands of Hope is a haven for those in need of help.

As we move forward, we will continue our mission to promote a culture of life and to care for the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those who come to us.
