The Need

Foster and adversity-impacted youth and young adults often feel disconnected from their own worth or potential. Years of enduring difficult circumstances can leave them with a sense of helplessness, a victim mentality, and a profound lack of confidence. Without a clear sense of validation and purpose to script their future narrative, many feel powerless and, by default, fall into old habits and circumstances. Many who are transitioning often find themselves leaning on who they were rather than who they could be.

It Takes a Community

Use the Institute and its Initiatives to inspire, excite, and motivate the people you love and serve

Introduction

A Solution

CYW uses the power of visual storytelling, creative writing, and interactive activities to serve as an innovative outlet for growth, self-expression, and well-being. Participants experience and exercise the power to imagine and create a new vision for their future. Our initiatives enable participants to shift their narrative from survival to possibility. Some projects provide attendees with an interest in screenwriting and film producing the fundamental skills they need for a career pursuit in the film industry.We then provide alumni of the Institute with ongoing housing, workforce, and mental health support through access to CYW’s network of wraparound service partners.
