Frequently Asked

Questions

Interested in learning how Spirt of Hope helps the homeless? Take a look at our FAQ below! 

  • How is Spirit of Hope funded?
    Our limited budget begins with the modest, sliding-scale rent from our residents that covers essentials like utilities, cable, internet, and Wi-Fi. On average, our residents paid about $600 per month in 2024. In past years, we were fortunate to receive grants from the City of Carson and COVID-19 relief funds, which helped us grow. As we expand our reach in Carson City, we need your support to continue providing safe, affordable housing for those in need. Join us in making a difference—your donation will help us bring hope and stability to more lives.
  • Who can live in Spirit of Hope housing?
    Most of our residents come to us through local health agencies or the Carson City court system. We conduct a thorough intake process for each potential resident to ensure they are a good fit and are physically and mentally ready to thrive in our homes. While we do not offer assisted living care, we provide a supportive environment where residents can maintain their independence by managing basic self-care tasks, such as showering, preparing meals, and taking medication. We believe in providing stability without a strict timeline, as our homes are not transitional but a place where people can find lasting support and a sense of belonging.
  • Do you house families? What about pets?
    At this time, Spirit of Hope serves adult individuals. Spirit of Hope housing cannot accommodate pets.
  • How can I help?
    Get Involved with Spirit of Hope’s mission with financial gifts, various in-kind donations, volunteering, or giving us a house for one of our residences.
  • Where is Spirit of Hope located?
    The Spirit of Hope Inc. main office is at 411 N. Division Street, Carson City, NV 89703.
  • Can you tell me more about your houses?
    Spirit of Hope manages a number of houses in the Carson City area where our residents live in a family-like environment with access to social services and peer support. The exact number of properties fluctuates but we are always looking for additional homes to expand our mission. Please contact us if you have a property we could rent or purchase from you, or that you would like to leave as a bequest.
