(KLZA)-- Several members of the Richardson County House of Hope, a 501 c (3) non-profit corporation met with Richardson County Commissioners this week to outline their plans to establish a house for temporary homeless persons offering hep and assistance to get job training, obtaining personal documentation to assist with getting gainful employment and eventually establishing a residence on their own.
Plans call for the drug and alcohol-free house to be staffed 24-hours a day with a zero-tolerance policy.
The group has been working to seek financial support through grant applications, community support and private contributions.
Members of the Board of Directors are David Sickel, Jerry Duerfeldt, Gayle Keller, Sara Morris, Julie Bauman, Linda Santo and Ashley Schramm.
