The Organisation
HOPES Inc. (Housing Options Providing Extra Support) is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to offering supported, independent living options for individuals with acquired brain injuries (ABI) and/or neurological disabilities. Since its incorporation in 1997, HOPES has focused on creating suitable and supportive accommodation for younger Tasmanians (up to 65 years of age) living with ABI and neurological conditions.
In 2010, HOPES established Laetare Court at Hopkins Street, Moonah, a community designed to promote independence.
