Aloe Program - Starting January 2025
Mission Statement:
Our mission is to uplift children impacted by parental incarceration, addiction, or loss by pairing them with college mentors that faced similar struggles. Through these engagements we create a space for empowerment, healing, and growth for both parties. We believe in the power of shared experiences to build trust, confidence, and instill hope for the future. Together we aim to break the cycle of childhood trauma through lasting change and empower all people to reach their full potential.
