There are many factors that play a part causing people to live in poverty. In order to break the cycle we need to empower our youngest and equip them with the tools and resources to break generational poverty. Together we can break this cycle and change the course of peoples lives one person at a time.
CHILDREN BORN INTO POVERTY
Children born into poverty and violence often suffer from preventable illness and health issues that go untreated.
EARLY CHILDHOOD ILLNESS & MALNUTRITION
Children worrying about their next meal, safe drinking water or physical pain often fall behind in school or do not attend at all.
LACK OF EDUCATION & RESOURCES
Youth lacking an education find themselves without employment opportunities leading to increased involvement in drugs, violence and gang affiliation.
LIMITED JOB SKILLS = UNDEREMPLOYMENT
Many youth in poverty don't have the skills needed to find work, like résumé writing, interview prep or even understanding where to find a job.
We know children in poverty are at risk of becoming adults in poverty. That is why Empowering Change Outreach & Services is dedicated to providing resources and opportunities to learn self sufficiency and to equip families and individuals with the tools necessary to survive in this ever changing cycle of poverty.
We know that most people do not have access to the resources and information that can help improve the quality of their lives and put them on a path of self reliance. Our referrals include the following:
Health care, dental & well-being programs
Education programs
Safe & clean community centers
Life-skills training
Employment initiatives
