Need Parenting Guidance and Support?

Parenting isn’t always easy. We’re here to help.

When we become parents, there is no instruction manual. Every parent, at some point, feels frustrated or confused. At Hope Cottage, we offer the support and resources to build healthy family relationships and a positive, loving home environment for your children.

Questions about parenting? Contact Vanessa Ramirez at (469)-615-9418 (ext. 245) or vramirez@hopecottage.org.

Host a Diaper Drive

Did you know that one in three families don't have access to an adequate supply of diapers? Clean diapers are essential for the health and hygiene of a child. With today's rising costs, North Texas families are struggling to afford basic necessities. This diaper gap can impact a family's financial, physical, and emotional well-being.

Would your church, company, or civic group consider collecting diapers for Hope Cottage? By hosting a diaper drive, you can help raise awareness of diaper need and provide a vital necessity to families.
