Skill Advancement & Empowerment

Tutoring Services
Our tutoring services provide individualized academic support for youth impacted by foster care. Our dedicated tutor works one-on-one with each student, meeting them in their home or at a safe, agreed-upon location in the community. Sessions are tailored to meet each youth’s unique learning needs, helping to build confidence, improve academic skills, and support long-term educational success.
Mentoring
Mentoring is provided by our Support Specialist to help foster youth build life skills and social skills within their community. When outlined in the youth’s Individual Plan of Care (IPC), the specialist meets one-on-one with the client to offer guidance, encouragement, and real-world skill-building opportunities tailored to their personal goals and needs.
