A short survey is being conducted by a local master’s student to gather feedback from adults with mobility disabilities about their experiences (or desired experiences) using local trails and outdoor programs in Anchorage.

The survey takes about 10–15 minutes and is designed to identify barriers and help improve accessibility, inclusivity, and meaningful outdoor experiences. If you or someone you know experiences mobility challenges, please share your feedback in the survey below.

We honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his vision of justice, equity, and dignity for all. His work aligned with our mission, values, and belief that disability rights are civil rights—and that inclusion is essential to building a truly just society.

In observance of today's holiday, Hope’s main offices are closed and will re-open tomorrow, January 20 at 8:00am.

"Fast forward to 12 months from now and picture the best version of your life. Consider the areas that matter most to you—relationships, health, self-care, recreation, career, spirituality. Imagine that your habits, routines, and choices have supported you in the best possible way. Now, identify small, realistic steps you could start taking now to move closer to that vision."

Housing affordability matters—especially for people who experience intellectual and developmental disabilities and have a limited income. Thanks to a generous grant from The Wells Fargo Foundation, Hope is able to preserve housing affordability for the people and families we support at our assisted living homes across Alaska. This support will help us offset rising costs and keep monthly rent stable for at least a year.

Thank you again, Wells Fargo, for your partnership and support!
