We are honored and privileged to provide full support and training to these families and young adults, empowering them to build resiliency skills and cultivate an enduring connection.
Based on the Redemptive Connection™ Framework, the five components of this support model are designed to strengthen and support lifelong, life-changing relationships for our youth and Mentoring Families.
At the heart of this support model are our Relationship Managers who maintain and grow connections between matched families through monthly touchpoints, visits and one-on-one surveys during the first twelve months of the match.
Alumni of our program have full access to our services as needed to ensure that their healthy connection endures.
