Chez Hope Inc is a nonprofit organization based in Franklin, Louisiana, founded in 1983 to support domestic violence victims in rural southern parishes. Over the past four decades, it has evolved from a volunteer-driven program into a multi-parish agency that operates two emergency shelters, a crisis hotline, legal advocacy, children's programs, and community education initiatives, with several offices and a range of support services. The organization provides safety planning, virtual support groups, and specialized services such as a Safe Exchange and Supervised Visitation Center, batterers’ intervention classes, and school and public presentations aimed at prevention and awareness. Its work targets individuals and families affected by domestic violence, seeking to reduce harm and promote healthy relationships through a combination of shelter, counseling, advocacy, and outreach across its service area. A recent development includes expanding its shelter capacity with a second facility in 2022, reflecting ongoing growth and service expansion within the nonprofit sector addressing domestic violence in Louisiana.
