We're constructing this site as a complement and backup to the existing HopeScope Forums, where we originally started our little internet family of friends in June, 2004. About a year later, we experienced a catastrophic data loss there, but having had a significant restoral, we're expanding here as part of what we've turned into an opportunity for growth. We'd love to have you visit and join us.

HopeScope was founded to provide a safe, welcoming place where teens, young adults and their friends, families, and/or other significant people in their lives can talk about a multitude of topics, as well as share commonalities and talents, or find peer support and expert help, advice, and information on life's challenges, including physical and mental health issues, interpersonal relationships, coping and healing skills, academic matters, and so much more! Although HopeScope was originally conceived to focus on teens and young adults, it soon became apparent that the need for support services among adults was undeniable and, also, that the mentorship value of experienced, caring adults in a web community could not be understated.  And since we all strive toward wellness, balance, functionality, happiness, and peace on some level, positive sharing is welcomed and encouraged here! Please come in and join us! We're always open!
