About EmpowHer Enterprises Inc.
EmpowHer's programs are designed with women and girls at the center, while remaining inclusive of young boys and young adults who experience similar disruptions during foster care, housing instability, and life transitions. Our approach recognizes that equity requires targeted solutions, not one-size-fits-all services. By tailoring support based on age, stage of life, and circumstance, EmpowHer advances fair access to resources and opportunity while maintaining a clear programmatic focus.
That’s why we proudly support EmpowHIM, a collaborative initiative created to empower boys and men through mentorship, education, personal development, and wellness. By addressing the unique challenges faced by both young women and young men, we help foster a more equitable and empowered future for all.
We exist because moments of transition often come without preparation. Girls entering foster care, young women working toward independence, and young boys experiencing disruption are frequently expected to move forward without the basic resources or guidance required to do so successfully. EmpowHer responds by addressing immediate gaps while creating pathways toward stability, confidence, and opportunity.
Our work is grounded in the belief that support must be both timely and practical. We focus on what people need right now, and what they need next.
What We Do
EmpowHer delivers tangible resources and structured learning opportunities that help participants move through transition with greater readiness and consistency.
Our core programs include:
Journey Totes
We provide real suitcases filled with personalized essentials for girls and boys entering foster care, shelters, or new placements. Each tote includes hygiene items, age appropriate books, school supplies, and comfort items to support continuity during transition.
Developmental Workshops and Mentoring
We offer workshops focused on literacy engagement, financial skills, career readiness, and self confidence. These sessions primarily support women and girls, while also being adapted for young boys based on age and developmental stage.
Youth, Young Adult, and Women Focused Support
Across all programs, we prioritize the needs of women and girls, while ensuring young boys are supported during key moments that shape confidence, learning, and long term outcomes.
Who We Serve
EmpowHer serves:
- Girls and young women navigating foster care, housing instability, and economic disruption
- Young boys impacted by foster care or family transition
- Young adults working toward independence and workforce entry
We partner with schools, foster care agencies, shelters, and community organizations to reach children and young adults during critical moments when timely support makes the greatest difference.
Our Approach
EmpowHer operates using an integrated model that combines immediate support with skill building and follow up.
Our approach includes:
- Rapid response to essential needs during transition
- Structured workshops with clear learning objectives
- Mentoring and guidance that reinforce progress over time
- Ongoing evaluation to measure outcomes and improve delivery
We are not a one time touchpoint. We are a steady presence during periods of change and a bridge toward longer term stability and opportunity.
Our Impact
EmpowHer measures success through both outputs and outcomes. We track items distributed, workshops delivered, and participants served, while also monitoring changes in engagement, preparedness, and follow through related to education, employment, and personal goal setting.
Why EmpowHer Matters
Transitions shape trajectories. When girls, boys, and young women are supported early and consistently, long term outcomes improve. EmpowHer fills a critical gap between emergency response and long term development by offering practical support at the exact moment it is needed.
Objectives & Goals
Overall Goal
EmpowHer Enterprises Inc exists to stabilize young lives during moments of disruption and to build long-term confidence, skills, and opportunities for youth and young adults impacted by foster care, housing instability, and economic hardship. Our goal is to interrupt cycles of instability by meeting immediate needs with dignity while equipping participants with practical tools for school, work, and life.
In plain terms, we help young people land on their feet and learn how to keep standing.
Goal 1: Ensure Youth in Transition Have Dignified, Immediate Support
Purpose:
When children and young adults experience placement changes or housing instability, basic needs are often overlooked. EmpowHer provides immediate, tangible support so no child enters their next chapter without essentials or dignity.
Objectives:
- Provide Journey Totes, real suitcases packed with personalized essentials, to at least 300 youth annually who are entering foster care, transitioning placements, or experiencing housing disruption.
- Ensure 100 percent of Journey Totes include age appropriate hygiene items, clothing essentials, school supplies, and at least one comfort or literacy item tailored to the child.
- Partner with a minimum of 10 child welfare agencies, shelters, or community organizations each year to ensure timely distribution to youth with the greatest need.
Outcome Focus:
Youth experience reduced stress during transitions, increased sense of dignity, and immediate access to essentials that support health, school readiness, and emotional wellbeing.
Goal 2: Build Foundational Skills That Support Long Term Stability
Purpose:
Meeting urgent needs is not enough. EmpowHer pairs tangible support with developmental workshops that strengthen confidence, literacy, financial awareness, and career readiness.
Objectives:
- Deliver at least 40 developmental workshops annually focused on reading engagement, financial literacy, self confidence, and career readiness.
- Serve a minimum of 250 youth and young adults through workshops each year, with at least 75 percent completing a full session series.
- Increase participant self reported confidence and skill readiness by at least 30 percent, as measured through pre and post workshop surveys.
Outcome Focus:
Participants demonstrate stronger self confidence, improved understanding of money and career pathways, and greater readiness for school or workforce success.
Goal 3: Support Youth Aging Out of Foster Care With Practical Transition Tools
Purpose:
Young adults aging out of foster care face a steep cliff with limited safety nets. EmpowHer helps bridge that gap with practical support and guidance during early adulthood.
Objectives:
- Provide targeted transition support, including life skills resources and mentorship, to at least 75 young adults annually.
- Connect 60 percent of participating young adults to employment readiness tools, education resources, or community referrals.
- Ensure at least 70 percent of participants report increased preparedness for independent living following program engagement.
Outcome Focus:
Young adults leave the program better prepared to manage daily responsibilities, pursue education or employment, and navigate adulthood with confidence.
Goal 4: Strengthen Community Response for Vulnerable Youth
Purpose:
EmpowHer believes sustainable change happens through collaboration. We work with schools, agencies, faith organizations, and community partners to improve how youth in transition are supported.
Objectives:
- Maintain active partnerships with at least 15 community organizations annually.
- Engage at least 100 volunteers per year in meaningful service roles, including packing events, workshops, and community outreach.
- Increase community awareness of the needs of foster and transition aged youth through events, storytelling, and donor engagement.
