More about our program and an update on the pandemic.

What is Cricket's Hope? We serve local children who have suffered from a mixture of child abuse, domestic violence, neglect or other trauma. Through demonstrating love and consistently showing support, we build meaningful relations and foster HOPE and resilience in our kids.

Cricket's Hope Art Restore Kids program provides children with a safe place to share their feelings and we promote healing through restorative groups.

We can't do our work without your support. It is so very critical to know you are with us on this journey to help improve the lives of our children in need. COVID-19 has changed our world and now more than ever our Kids need to know we are here for them and you are standing with us cheering them on.

During this pandemic we have pivoted from our school based programming to small groups (restorative groups) of 8-10 children at Crickets House. These groups of kiddo's need socialization in safe and secure environments. We will transition back to the schools once they reopen. With support we are hoping and planning to add another school in January! Plans are underway!

Also, we have started a Recording Studio (thanks to a donation from the Stanislaus Community Foundation) for our children that offers our teens a place to learn about the healing powers of self expression and story telling through music, beats, voice and creating their own lyrics. We started this in response to the needs of our older students and their expanding interests. Without camp this year the Studio became a highlight of our summer!

Social distancing is not the answer for our kids today suffering from trauma. It leads to isolation and feelings of hopelessness creating even more traumatic experiences in our kiddo's lives. They are lonely and anxious. Most of all they need hope and love. Now more than ever our kids need Hope from Cricket's Hope staff, mentors, volunteers, and most of all each other.

Can you help us help them?

By supporting this event you will help us provide much needed services for many children in our community.
