Mission Statement

Showing urban youth what it means to be loved for no reason, in the absence of parents, guardians and or natural support systems.

Description

The Jazzmine Marie Nolan Foundation, a nonprofit organization, serves a special demographic of today’s youth and in five Mid-Western Urban Cities, will meet a critical need.

  1. Within the 29,680 homeless individuals in St. Louis, MO, 40% are unaccompanied youth.
  2. Within the 63,153 homeless individuals in Chicago, IL, 35% are unaccompanied youth.
  3. Within the 27,556 homeless individuals in Milwaukee,Wisconsin, 29% are unaccompanied youth.
  4. Within the 28,070 homeless individuals in Detroit, Michigan, 27% are unaccompanied youth.
  5. Within the 28,789 homeless individuals in Memphis Tennessee, 25% are unaccompanied youth.

Within all of these cities, the number of unaccompanied youth whom are living on their own, without a parent or guardian is growing rapidly.

Unaccompanied youth are the demographic of teens and young adults that go un-served because they are not prone to the juvenile justice system, unemployment or amongst high school dropouts; they simply decided to transition from generations of trauma into a new era of life unbeknownst to the one provided them. We provide these youth the housing, academic, entrepreneurial, trauma care and scholarship supports needed to independently transition into adulthood with a stable foundation.
