Empowering Youth

to Thrive in Transition

What happens to youth when they “age out” of foster care?

In Michigan, around 575 young adults age out of foster care each year, often with no guidance or resources. Growing up is challenging enough, but for these individuals, the struggle is compounded by isolation, a lack of supportive adults, and no clear direction. Through no fault of their own, this overlooked group faces alarming rates of mental health issues, homelessness, and incarceration.

Through unwavering care and stready support, we can change the statistics for young people!

Our team works with foster parents and host providers in the community to offer support to youth ages 16-21 in order to help them prepare for life as a young adult. Our services empower youth to grow, mature and learn to live independently as adults.
Services offered include:

  • Job Training
  • Housing Assistance
  • Mentoring
  • Health Services
  • Independent Living Skills
