Our Mission

Our mission is to provide our underserved youth with the necessary skills and mindset through education, mentoring, and personal development that leads to transformation in themselves and their communities.

Did You Know?

  • 20%
    20% of youth in foster care will become instantly homeless when they age out of foster care.
  • <3%
    Less than 3% of youth who aged out of foster care ever earn a college degree at any point in their life.
  • 70%
    70% of aging-out foster youth will be arrested at least one time before age 26.
  • 7/10
    7 out of 10 girls who age out of foster care will become pregnant before they’re age 21.

We’ve partnered with Southwestern Student Coaching to serve as a crucial resource, providing personalized guidance and skill-building to empower foster youth as they develop essential life skills, take on adulthood confidently, and cultivate resiliency as they navigate the complexities of aging out of foster care.

The goal of THE FULL POTENTIAL PROJECT is to help foster youth in the U.S. as they face immense challenges transitioning to adulthood without stable support systems.

Recognizing the gap in mental and emotional maturity due to early-life trauma, the foundation aims to break the cycle of instability that affects these youth. Through this partnership, foster youth are provided with individual coaches who help develop soft skills, emotional intelligence, and focus – elements often overlooked in traditional educational and support programs.
