This is a new non profit organization developing to be able to provide aftercare and personal development for adolescent and young adults that have aged out of the foster care system who are in need of transitional housing and training/guidance to be functional adults of society.
We want to inspire exceptional young individuals to believe that the blessings God promised Abraham is upon their lives. They are more than just a case file number. They have a name and it will be Great!
Our primary goal is to reduce the number of homeless teens and young adults aging out of Michigan's foster care system. We want to partner with foster care facilities and services for referrals to create a transition plan for such individuals before the end of the foster care duration.
Our vision is to focus on young adults, ages of 18-22, that have aged out of the foster care system. We want to provide an intimate tiny home housing complex for these individuals and have accessible staff and resources on site for financial development, budgeting for daily responsibilities and necessities, finding employment and/or schooling, and medical services and benefits.
Our future vision is to make a special exception for aged out young adult ages (22-24) that need extended assistance due to circumstances, but not limited to, of graduating from a full-time educational institution where housing will be no longer available.
I have always wanted to not only provide housing for the homeless community, but instill hope and discipline back into their lives for those who seriously wanted a change and chance at life again. When a loved one brought to my attention about the homelessness plaguing from foster care youth, it was a no brainer on who I needed to serve.
