Mission Statement

Empowering orphaned and vulnerable youth as they transition out of state care.

Description

Empty Frames Initiative is looking to begin work in the state of Texas.
August of 2021, Texas had custody of 28,753 children. It’s estimated that close to 1200 youth age out of foster care annually in Texas. Empty Frames Initiative sees a need and opportunity to connect these young adults to a com- munity to help them transition into a complete and fulfilling independent life.
Around the world, youth aging out of state care are put into vulnerable positions. It’s not uncommon for kids to age out, try to navigate this new road on their own, and then become susceptible to traffickers, get involved in criminal life, or commit suicide. In response to this need, we want to empower foster youth aging out of state care to tell and redeem their stories, stories that often go unheard. We are looking to open a facility that will provide counseling, training in life skills, community, and the knowledge of the gospel. We carry a global vision, and are excited to begin the journey.

Empty Frames Initiative is inspired and driven by the heart of the Father. We believe everyone is created with a purpose, and that each individual has immense worth. We find this to be a key value of our program as we look to affirm with the participants that their lives have enormous potential.

Our Board of Directors and Governance Board covers a diverse range of backgrounds and interests, from business owners to advocates, all coming together to make this initiative and the Overture Program a reality.
