All programs are 100% free for young women ages 17–24 in Los Angeles, CA
Housing Support & Stability
Safe, stable housing is the foundation of everything. We help young women navigate transitional housing options, understand tenant rights, apply for rental assistance, and build the financial habits needed to maintain stable housing long-term.
- Transitional housing referrals & navigation
- Rental assistance guidance
- Tenant rights education
- Budgeting for housing costs
- Emergency housing support
Career Development & Mentorship
Every young woman deserves a career path that excites her. We connect women with mentors, help them explore their strengths, build professional skills, and take real steps toward employment, entrepreneurship, or higher education.
- One-on-one career mentorship
- Resume building & interview prep
- Job placement support
- Entrepreneurship exploration
- College & trade school guidance
Life Skills Education
The foster care system often leaves young women without the everyday knowledge most families pass down. We fill that gap — teaching financial literacy, healthcare navigation, cooking, self-advocacy, and the practical skills of independent adult life.
- Financial literacy & banking basics
- Healthcare navigation & insurance
- Cooking & nutrition fundamentals
- Self-advocacy & communication
- Time management & goal setting
Community & Sisterhood
Aging out of foster care can be deeply isolating. We build a community — a sisterhood of young women who understand each other's journeys, celebrate each other's wins, and refuse to let anyone navigate adulthood alone.
- Peer support groups
- Community events & gatherings
- Mentorship circles
- Shared experiences & storytelling
- Long-term relationship building
