Last Thursday, Duke Energy volunteers put together “Welcome Home” baskets and wrote encouraging notes for 36 families who will be moving into the new Family Scholar House on the Ivy Tech Sellersburg campus.

The baskets included cleaning supplies, kitchen basics, children’s activities information on how to save money and energy and financial assistance for customers. A $10,000 Duke Energy Foundation grant supported the welcome baskets and other assistance for families, including food, school essentials, academic coaching and success planning.

“Moving into a new home marks the beginning of an exciting journey, filled with hope, stability, and opportunity,” said Lisa Huber, government and community relations manager for Duke Energy. “These baskets provide not just essentials for families, but also a feeling of community as they begin their next adventure.”

“We appreciate the Duke Energy Foundation support that will help scholars overcome obstacles and stay on track toward pursuing a degree and graduation,” said Deja B. Jackson, director of Community Engagement for Family Scholar House. “Our wrap around services have shown strong results in our graduation rates and contribute to the overall health, mental wellness and well-being of the entire family.”

Our Resource Coordinators are truly the engine that drives much of what we do for those we are able to assist. Watch as Missy, Resource Coordinator for our Elizabethtown Community and Technical College site, walks you through all the ways we support students. We’re so grateful for the passion and purpose that she and all of our Resource Coordinators bring with them every day.

Some paths to success are straighter than others. Karrinton’s had a few turns along the way to graduation. In this video she talks about her journey, her challenges, how Family Scholar House accompanied her each step of the way — and what's next. (Note: due to a poor connection, the video quality is not great. But the message is.) Hi.

All of our student participants know the courage required to take that first step toward advanced education and true self-sufficiency, and to continue to take each step that follows, especially as new challenges arise and life throws up barriers and obstacles. But today, we all salute that far greater level of courage displayed by all of the courageous men and women who have given their lives in defense of our freedom and the freedom of others around the world. Their memory is a constant inspiration to us all.

MyKY.info is a free app designed by Family Scholar House to help individuals quickly find the resources they need. It’s available to anyone with internet access, and at strategically placed kiosks in high-traffic areas.

MyKY.info provides a wide range of free resources that have been vetted by trained staff, including food pantries, clothing banks, homeless shelters, rent and transportation assistance, legal help, educational support, medical services, and more.

The primary users are those needing free critical services to overcome mental, physical, emotional and financial barriers, as well as first responders, family members of those in need, or other service agency staff seeking services for their clients. This includes law enforcement, hospital staff, court officials, and the network of caring human services professionals in agencies across the Commonwealth.

The app opens with a “For You” dial, allowing users to filter results by s*x, age, family status, and other demographics. Users can also access all services via the “Services Dial,” where everyday needs are represented with icons. Clicking an icon reveals a menu of resource options and a list of available services.

Below the dial, two urgent needs icons lead to “Crisis Lines and Safe Places” and “Live Help.” The latter connects users with specialists at Family Scholar House’s Trager Response Center for non-emergency support.

The app features a language option at the top of the home screen so users can switch between English, Spanish and French, accommodating families from multiple backgrounds.

FSH Real Estate, the dedicated real estate development arm of Family Scholar House, has sold another home! A new homeowner will be moving into a new, energy-efficient 3 bedroom, 2 bath home in the Parkland Neighborhood. This follows the sale of another home last month!

A lack of affordable housing is a national issue. FSH Real Estate was created to execute the housing components essential to FSH’s mission of breaking the cycle of poverty through educational attainment and stable housing.

As a subsidiary of Family, Inc., FSH Real Estate strategically focuses on creating affordable housing opportunities that support families’ journeys toward self-sufficiency, career advancement, long-term stability, and generational wealth creation through homeownership.

Yesterday, we shared a video of Felicia Young talking about what Family Scholar House is accomplishing in Houston at The Carpenter. Located in Houston’s vibrant Third Ward, The Carpenter offers 76 thoughtfully designed apartment homes across seven walk-up buildings.

Just steps from the University of Houston, Texas Southern University, and a bus and light-rail stop connecting residents to other schools, employment and recreation centers across Houston, this community is ideally situated for families pursuing higher education and long-term success.

In partnership with Family Scholar House, The Carpenter provides dedicated services for parents enrolled in a post-secondary educational program with at least one minor child, including case management, educational support, and access to childcare, all designed to help residents complete post-secondary education and thrive.
