People's Emergency Center and Youth Service, Inc. Announce New Agency NamePeople’s Emergency Center and Youth Service, Inc. announced our plan to integrate into one agency in November 2019. We officially began operating as a single organization named HopePHL™ (pronounced “hopeful”) on January 1, 2023.
HopePHL’s mission is to inspire Philadelphia's children, youth, families and communities to thrive by providing housing, advocacy, and trauma-responsive social services designed to promote equity, resilience, autonomy, and well-being. By leveraging the combined expertise, networks and cumulative impact of PEC and YSI, HopePHL will deliver many of the same services, and some new programs with efficiency and efficacy. HopePHL will support over 25,000 community members, residents, and students annually to reach their goals of safe homes, economically secure and healthy families, and thriving students and businesses.

Paulette, one of our students, said she enjoys the classes she’s been taking: “I come from a work environment where I use the computer every day, but I was only using the programs I needed for my job.
