Who We Are
Fostering Independence is a dedicated nonprofit organization committed to empowering young adults ages 18-24 as they transition into independent living. We provide essential resources, mentorship, and support to help build a stable future.
What We Do
Our program is designed to assist young adults who are working or attending school by offering case management, transportation assistance, mentorship, and basic needs support. We also provide a car savings program to help participants gain financial independence and mobility.
Our services are structured into three progressive phases:
Foundations – Establishing stability through basic needs support and guidance.
Fundamentals – Developing life skills, employment readiness, and financial literacy.
Future – Preparing for long-term success in housing, career, and personal growth.
Our Partnerships
We collaborate with an extensive network of community partners, businesses and organizations, each utilizing their own resources and funding to come together and create a holistic approach to providing the best possible care for our program participants. This collaborative approach is what enables us to offer a resource-rich, robust program full of community support.
How We Make an Impact
Success is measured by tangible improvements in housing stability, food security, and employment opportunities for our participants. Through the generosity and support of our partners, donors, grants, and material contributions, we continue to expand our reach and help young adults build a brighter future.
