Imagine being 18, 19, 20, 21…

Your whole future is ahead of you. Dreams. Possibilities. Potential.

But becoming an adult doesn’t come with a roadmap.

Sometimes you just need someone to answer the phone, help you navigate the next step, believe in what’s possible, and walk alongside you while you figure it out.

That’s what it means to fuel a future.

Tomorrow, we gather for Fueling Futures: A Taste of Hope to celebrate emerging adults building their futures, and the community choosing to walk beside them.

The future is already theirs.

🔥 Let’s help fuel it.

✨ 2 DAYS TO GO! ✨

We’re almost there! 💛 #

In just two days, we’ll gather for Fueling Futures: A Taste of Hope, an evening centered on hope, possibility, purpose, and the power we have to change a young person’s future.

This is bigger than one night. It’s about showing young people impacted by foster care that their story doesn’t end with the system, and that there’s a community ready to walk alongside them as they build what comes next.

📅 Friday, September 18 | 6:30 PM
📍 Georgetown, Texas

Fuel a Future. Create Impact. Leave a Legacy.

We can’t wait to see you there. 💛

If you can’t come, it’s OK. You can still get involved by making a donation today. https://change1.org/donate-1

We’re less than one week away. 💙✨

Fueling Futures: A Taste of Hope is about what becomes possible when a community chooses to show up for young people impacted by foster care and child welfare systems.

This is more than a night out. It’s connection. It’s possibility. It’s investing in what comes next.

Swipe through. See what we’re building. And come be part of it.

Be in the room. Be part of what comes next.

📣 Fathers’ voices belong at the table.

We have reserved one seat on our council for a father who has been personally impacted by CPS, whether you have had an open case, reunified with your children, or have navigated the child welfare system in another way.

We’re looking for a dad who is willing to use his lived experience to help us listen, learn, and improve how families are supported. You do not need to be a professional or have all the answers. We’re looking for honesty, insight, and a desire to help create meaningful change for other fathers and families.

Your story matters. Your perspective is needed. And this seat was intentionally saved for you.

Interested? (Or know a father who may be a great fit?)

Send ‘FATHERHOOD’ to (512) 840-8314

Please share and help us reach the right dad. 💙

📣 Are you a parent or individual with lived experience in foster care or the child welfare system? Your voice matters.

We are seeking Family Advocates to help shape a new initiative called Restoring Families, Restoring Futures: Culturally Responsive Restorative Circles. This project is centered on ensuring that families and community members with lived experience help guide the work—not just receive services.

Family Advocates will:
✨ Share their insights and experiences
✨ Participate in restorative circles, trainings, and community gatherings
✨ Help identify barriers and opportunities for families
✨ Inform the development of culturally responsive restorative practices
✨ Receive a stipend for participation

The council will begin in August 2026 and meet approximately twice per month over a 15-month period. (More information in the link below)

If you have lived experience with foster care or child welfare involvement and want to help create meaningful change for families, we would love to hear from you.

Apply here:

Please share with anyone who may be interested. Sometimes the people whose voices are most needed aren’t connected to the organizations doing the work.

A housing pathway cannot only be designed from the system’s point of view.

On paper, the pathway may look clear: outreach, shelter, housing, workforce support, and long-term stability.

But from the lived experience lens, that same pathway can feel like paperwork, waitlists, transportation barriers, missing documents, eligibility rules, trauma, rejection, and uncertainty.

At Change 1, we believe housing solutions must be designed with the people who are actually navigating them.

A pathway only works if people can access it, trust it, move through it, and not get lost inside the system.

Lived experience must be part of the design, not an afterthought.

Today, we honor Juneteenth as a celebration of freedom, resilience, and community.

At Change 1, we recognize that liberation is not only about remembering history, but also about continuing the work of healing, equity, and opportunity for children, youth, and families impacted by systems.

May this day remind us of the power of truth, culture, joy, and collective responsibility.

Happy Juneteenth from Change 1. ❤️🖤💚
