Our Focus:
YOUTH EMPOWERMENT!

Our
Youth Leadership Academy (YLA)

Our classes are free or offered at significantly reduced cost because of community donations and our
social enterprise
efforts.
YLA develops youth leadership skills and talent with the following programs...

Through our relationship with Junior Achievement, we use their financial literacy curriculum to
foster
work-readiness, entrepreneurship,
and
financial literacy skills

Did you know that regularly connecting with your child is shown to be a protective factor against suicidal thoughts? By having healthy conversations about their feelings, you will create an open environment and encourage them to come to you in times of stress.
This September during National Suicide Prevention Week, take time to check in with your youth and your loved ones.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER
|
|
"As a former foster youth, I am all too familiar with the challenges that life brings to tell you that you won't make it in this world or amount to anything. With faith, determination, and support, I overcame the limitations of being a foster youth. I founded The Empowerment Center to be the difference that I once needed. It's my goal to help youth and families develop the resilience necessary to overcome challenges, discover the best of themselves and create healthier, happier patterns of living. Today we have reached over 750 families and 4500 youth and counting...
Thank you for making a difference with us."
