ECHOS OF HOPE

ECHOS started in 2016 to address homelessness in Elizabethtown and has grown into a nonprofit serving over 400 households annually across Northwest Lancaster County. Through housing programs, eviction prevention, and emergency shelter, we empower families facing housing instability.

With your support, we continue to offer trauma-informed, client-centered advocacy, working alongside each individual to build a secure foundation for their future. But we cannot do it alone. Private donations are vital to our mission, providing the flexibility to respond to urgent needs and sustain programs that create lasting impact. Your contribution directly supports local families, offering hope, stability, and a path forward.
