Our Mission

Reducing recidivism
and mass incarceration
in Massachusetts.

Reduce the cycle of recidivism by providing direct aid to communities disproportionately impacted by the war on drugs.

Mission

Only by helping each other can we make the world better.

Big Hope Project is a grassroots 501c3 organization led by two Haitian-American brothers born and raised in Dorchester, Massachusetts.

Our mission is to reduce the cycle of recidivism by providing direct aid to communities disproportionately impacted by the war on drugs. Our services include free record sealing and expungement, workforce education events, and outreach to educate the community about the  Massachusetts Cannabis Social Equity Program. 

We work to close the information gap on expungement eligibility and  social equity in the cannabis industry for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) as well as citizens returning to the community after incarceration.

We conduct ongoing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts in communities disproportionately harmed by the War on Drugs, marijuana prohibition, disproportionate arrest, and incarceration. Our no cost events include seminars, business to business (B2B) networking, and legal support services focused on record expungement.

We collect metrics to develop an annual Positive Impact Report illustrating and quantifying the impact we are making on our communities each year.

How we are working

We provide a platform for ideas that bring local places to life.

We work to close the information and opportunity gap for those negatively impacted the warn on drugs. Our team works to educate  BIPOC and returning citizens about eligibility requirements for the Massachusetts Social Equity program targeting the cannabis industry.

 

Big Hope also services Massachusetts communities with free seminars and B2B networking events educating the community members about opportunities in cannabis industry.  Our team also works with those negatively impacted by War on Drug to connect them to legal support clinics.
