Job Description - Accounts Payable Clerk
About us
The dream of Hopewell Center began in the
early 1950s when a group of parents sought services for their
children and founded Peter Pan Preschool. The group was incorporated
in 1966 and officially adopted the name Hopewell Center in May 1983.
As a private, not-for-profit agency,
Hopewell has experienced rapid growth in services, personnel, and
persons served. While originally focusing exclusively on persons
with disabilities, Hopewell has expanded its services to families
with infants and toddlers that are 'at-risk due to developmental or
socio-economic factors.
Hopewell now has an array of facility and
community-based opportunities, including family services, children's
services, employment services, and residential services. Today,
nearly 200 caring professionals provide person-centered services to
over 450 individuals a year.
