Born from a deep love for community, Nouveau Hope was built to fill a gap — and it has grown into a beacon of hope for Jackson County.
Nouveau Hope Wellness Group Inc. was born out of a simple but urgent recognition: the people of Marianna, Florida were in need of accessible, dignified wellness support — and there was a gap in the community that needed to be filled.
Founded by Mary Lopusnak and headquartered at 2968 Russ St in Marianna, FL, Nouveau Hope was built from the ground up with a commitment to serving individuals and families who face real barriers to health and well-being. The name says it all — nouveau, meaning new, and hope, the driving force behind everything we do.
From the very beginning, the organization operated on the belief that care doesn't have to be complicated or out of reach. With heart, determination, and deep community roots, Nouveau Hope opened its doors and immediately went to work connecting neighbors to resources, providing direct support, and advocating for the well-being of Jackson County residents.
What started as a vision is now a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, recognized by the IRS and anchored in the community it serves.
From a vision to a vital community institution — here are the moments that have defined us.
The next chapter is being written every day — and there's room for you in it.
