This is our first blog from our new office and Laura and I couldn’t be happier. It’s been a labor of love getting settled but it’s coming together very well. Our previous office was a shared space in a renovated industrial building in SE Portland just across the water from Downtown. While it served HHI well, the timing was right for HHI to get our very own office. We’re now the proud new tenants of a 180 square foot office of our own in the Montgomery Park building (the 2nd largest building in Oregon!) in NW Portland.
Yellow walls with beautiful photos from India and Uganda, handmade gifts from HHI participants and our world map make it feel like home. This has been a great way to kick off 2012 and we look forward to giving you all many more updates from our new office!

Hi Tyler,
Thanks for your interest. At this time HHI is active in India and Uganda, though we are pursuing new countries for partnership to launch this year. If you join our mail list, you’ll hear all about it as we announce new initiatives, in new locations. Stay tuned, 2012 will be an exciting one for HHI!
Best,
Laura Peterson

Thanks,

Laura Peterson Bio
For 10 years, I served children suffering from severe emotional disorders. These children were hurt so badly at such an early age that by 5 they had already failed repeatedly in foster homes and adoptions. I realized that I could no longer stand to be the "ambulance squad". In 2004, I founded HHI as a way to reach the world's neediest and youngest children with the simplest, most cost effective forms of healing available. Just as important, I wanted to empower women in the developing world to act for positive change in their families and communities everyday, weaving a stronger social fabric for the benefit of all.
Where We Are
