The Educational Mentoring Program (EMP) helps students from the foster care system achieve their goal of completing college.

Of Home, Family and Future is a non-profit organization formed to offer a different kind of assistance to domestic violence survivors and college-bound foster care youth. Many of these students drop out of college because they don’t feel comfortable in their environment, not because they’re intellectually unable to do the work. The EMP focuses on students who possess the strength of character and intellectual tools to break the cycle of poverty, drugs and despair, but are often lost to society due to lack of appropriate support. In cooperation with partner agencies, this program provides vital support to enable these students to become college graduates and contributors to society. The Domestic Violence Initiative aims to provide comprehensive and long-term support to working women survivors of domestic violence and their children. Through this program, women are given access to the resources they need in order to rebuild strong and economically independent families, empowering them to make significant and lasting changes in their lives and those of their children.

Emma had this to say about the Transformation Squared Program - “It has been the light at the end of an incredibly dark period in my life. In my journey to survive domestic violence, I was re-victimized by the system, stigmatized by the ill-informed and marginalized. Today, I am working in a position I love, making a salary I couldn’t have imagined and my small family’s needs are met. This is one of the few programs that provides support while honoring humanity.”
