OUR MISSION
Empower 7 is a Christian faith-based organization with a mission to provide strategic life solutions to empower the lives of vulnerable youth, so they will discover purpose and reach their full potential despite any inherent challenges that may influence them otherwise.
Founded in 2018 with a genuine desire and unconditional motivation to make a difference in the personal lives of the vulnerable, our goal is to provide residential, educational and community-based services at no cost to the youth in our care.
Residential – 24-hour residential services to provide a physically, emotionally, and psychologically safe place where youth can heal, develop, and move forward with their lives. Our long-term residential plans are two-fold:
- The Ranch – Home in a serene ranch setting for vulnerable youth 18 years of age or younger
- The Urban – Home in the Dallas metroplex for young adults aging out of foster care
Educational – Opportunities for youth to learn in several different settings, such as outdoor group camps, instructional classrooms, support life groups, and one-on-one tutoring.
Community-based – Partnership with other individuals and organizations to ensure all needs, critical to the development of the youth, are addressed.
Our vision is for “All youth, regardless of their circumstance, to become thriving, purposeful adults who are driven to make the world a better place.”
