An older brick building that used to house a butcher shop; the interior is utilitarian and thrift shop chic -- nothing matches, most furniture was donated or scavenged. Renovations are on-going (and slow, in the fashion of volunteers volunteering when they have time to do so) but the place hosts support and study groups as well as various clubs and hobby groups meetings, as well as a small library and play area for parenting groups and their toddlers. The kitchen and bathroom facilities may date to the 1970s but they are fully functional in all their emerald green and mustard glory. Upstairs are reserved private rooms for therapy sessions and a couple of folding beds for people desperately needing a place for a night or two; one room is locked off, reserved for victims of domestic abuse. A hand-written sign over the door declares: HOPE Community Center.
