H.O.P.E.
United
Fellowship

In partnership with LMPD, local employers, and health providers, our H.O.P.E. United Fellowship surrounds participants with what they need to rewrite their future: a salary, mental and physical health care, mentorship, educational and job training, life and employability skills, and direct access to employment opportunities. It’s not just a program, it’s a movement to reduce violence, restore trust, and renew hope across our community.

The H.O.P.E. United Fellowship is a bold and compassionate initiative designed to save lives, uplift communities, and unlock the full potential of young Black men in Louisville. Created for individuals ages 18–24 who are at risk of falling victim to gun violence, poverty, or systemic barriers, the fellowship provides a lifeline and new choices.

At the heart of the fellowship is the meaning of H.O.P.E.
