💜 **There’s a place for your teen at EmpowerU.**

We currently have **5 openings for teens ages 15–18** in Lafourche and Terrebonne Parishes, and we’d love to welcome a few new faces into our EmpowerU family.

Being a teenager isn’t always easy. Sometimes teens just need a place where they can **feel comfortable being themselves, connect with others, build confidence, and have supportive adults in their corner.** That’s what we want EmpowerU to be.

Your teen doesn’t have to be in crisis to belong here. 💜

EmpowerU can be a great fit for teens who could use:

• A little extra encouragement and motivation
• Support navigating stress and emotions
• Help building confidence and self-esteem
• Positive friendships and connection
• Structure, accountability, and guidance
• A safe place to talk and be heard
• Support figuring out school, relationships, and what comes next

And because every teen and every family is different, **we meet them where they are.**

☀️ **Day Program:** 2 days per week
🌙 **Evening Program:** 1 evening per week
🏠 **Home-Based Program:** A mentor comes directly to the student
📚 **Homeschool Options:** Educational support and alternative options when needed
💜 **Counseling Services:** Additional counseling support is available when needed

**There is NO COST to families.**

We currently have room to welcome **5 new teens, ages 15–18**, from **Lafourche and Terrebonne Parishes.**

If you’re wondering whether EmpowerU could be a good fit for your teen, **reach out to us directly.** You don’t need a referral, and you don’t need to know which program your teen needs before contacting us.

📩 **Send us a private message here on Facebook to get started.**

Tell us a little about your teen and what you’re looking for, and we’ll personally connect with you to answer your questions and help determine which EmpowerU option may be the best fit.

**We’d love to hear from you. 💜**

We’ve got room at the table. 💜

EmpowerU Enrollment is officially OPEN — and we’re looking for teens who need something a little different.

Maybe traditional school hasn’t worked.
Maybe they need extra support.
Maybe they need confidence, direction, accountability… or simply a place where somebody sees the potential in them.

That’s what we do here.

We work on the diploma, absolutely. 🎓
But we also work on the person behind it.

Life skills. Confidence. Communication. Healthy relationships. Leadership. Community. And learning how to show up for yourself.

Because we’re not just trying to get kids through school.

We’re helping them build a life they’re proud of. 💜

Open Enrollment is HERE at EmpowerU! 💜

We believe young people deserve more than just a place to complete schoolwork. They deserve a space where they’re seen, supported, challenged, and encouraged to grow.

Yes, we’re working toward that diploma. 🎓
But we’re also building confidence, accountability, communication, healthy relationships, life skills, leadership, and connection to our community.

Because what happens after the diploma matters too.

If you have a teen who could benefit from a little more support and a whole lot of people in their corner, we’d love to have them. 💜
