Hope Haven International Ministries (HHIM) reaches beyond the borders of our nation by extending mercy to people with disabilities around the world. The mission of Hope Haven International Ministries is to assist persons with disabilities to reach their potential.
We do this by developing opportunities to improve the economic position, social welfare and independence of people with disabilities throughout the world. Hope Haven works closely with relief and development organizations, mission groups and individuals in various countries to deliver wheelchairs to those in desperate need.

The North portion of the building (Phase 1 and Phase 2) is complete. Phase 3 will begin next week. (1/9/2012)
We're now using the new entrance and lobby! Stop by to say hi. Parkview North offices and warehouse are beginning to be occupied and hope to be settled over the next two week. (12/15/11)
New signage is installed in the front of the building. (12/2/2011)
The flooring in the north portion has been completed and reception desks are being installed.
The previous front has been closed in with a brick wall and an awning is being put up. Temporarily, traffic for the front of the building must enter through the southeast door until the new entrance is open.
HHIM now has the entire building located on Hwy 18 to occupy for the wheelchair ministry. Over the next several months they will be getting settled, painting, and rearranging.
The first week of August, Parkview South moved into the North warehouse, combining the work programs into one building. It is no longer called "North" and "South." It is now "Parkview Industries," all working together in one remodeled area. Parkview Industries staff have also moved into the newly renovated offices on the far north end of the main building.
The north portion of the Parkview warehouse and several offices have been completed. Parkview North clients and staff will be moving into those completed areas the week of June 20th. Renovation will begin on the south portion of the Parkview warehouse. Progress continues to be made on the new dining room and entrance.
The steel frame work for the new dining area and new entrance have begun to be put up. Images below.
The 3 ton unit that will heat and cool the north portion of the building was installed. See image of the unit being lifted on the roof of the building.
Renovation progress is being made. The back offices have been gutted and new frame work has been put up. New duct work is being installed in the main warehouse, and the wall that previously separated HHIM and Parkview is being removed to create one large open warehouse.
The renovation and demolition began on November 15th. See images of progress below.
October 1-2, HHIM and Parkview South moved locations to prepare for the construction. Parkview South is combined with PV North, and HHIM is in PV South's previous building (on Hwy 18). Some offices are moved temporarily, but all staff still have the same phone numbers.
Ground Breaking Ceremony was held Tuesday, Sept 28th at Hope Haven's main building in Rock Valley. Friends supporters, and clients of Hope Haven gathered for a devotional and dedication of the new project. Shovels were used by Hope Haven representatives to symbolize the launch of the renovation.
