Our Board of Directors

Mike Horne, Board President

Meet Mike Horne. He is the President of the Board of Homes of Hope. He has a Bachelor’s degree in Justice Studies with a double minor in Forensics and Chemistry. He currently works as a Shipping Coordinator at Clearwater Paper here in Lewiston. Mike was born and raised in the LC Valley. He spent over 4 years in the U.S. Air Force before returning to the Valley. I have six wonderful children and five awesome grandchildren. God has blessed me and helped me grow, to be able to help this ministry as it grows. Part of this growth took place watching parents and friends struggle in the neighborhood I grew up in, part of it as a foster parent, and then I spent time working with state program helping foster family awareness and recruitment. Two Fun Facts about Mike: He likes to spend time with his kids especially on car trips and spend time in the outdoors as well.
