We were excited to have José with us at the Los Robles event, sharing what Door of Hope still means to him, more than two decades later . José was just a young boy in 2000 when his family found temporary refuge at Door of Hope’s first house, Los Robles.
At our March event, he shared that one of the things he was most grateful for is that he never had to tell anyone that he lived in a “homeless shelter,” because as far as he knew, he wasn’t homeless—he was home. Door of Hope was home and gave him a sense of normalcy, and just as important, of structure.

And now, as an adult, he appreciates that structure even more. He shared how it helped prepare him, and everyone around him, for success. He even remembers “snooping” around the budgeting classes and other activities for adults, soaking up all the information he could even as a child. Now in his 30s, José is a grateful volunteer at Door of Hope, living out his gratitude in ways that will help other kids who walk through the same front door that he did.
