What our Employees Say

“I wrote an essay for an assignment in 7th grade titled “If I could make a difference…”, which has resonated through my heartstings for all these years. Spero is a place where we can plant seeds of hope and work towards creating conditions for positive change to make life better. What better way to make a difference.”

-Lynne Hampton

TLP/ILO Case Manager

When I think about what it truly means to help people, it’s about meeting them where they are, understanding their struggles, and walking alongside them. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside people who show up every day with compassion, dedication, and a real drive to support those who need it. Supporting our community isn’t just what we do; it’s who we are.
