Mission Statement
Jeremiah's Promise is a Christian-based public benefit organization dedicated to the empowerment of teens who have aged out of the foster care system. Jeremiah's Promise will provide housing and a comprehensive program designed to support the needs of youth who have been emancipated from foster care. Our goal is to assist each young person in acquiring the skills necessary to embark confidently into adulthood and to meet these youth where they are with unconditional love and respect. The staff, volunteers and leaders of Jeremiah's Promise will provide living services for foster youth aged 18 to 21; prepare and train them to become responsible individuals; encourage every participant to take the next step in his or her own spiritual, emotional and vocational development.
