Youth and Family

​Aspire’s Youth & Family program supports households with children through educational programming, wraparound services, family stability resources, and opportunities for youth to build leadership and life skills. Rooted in the belief that strong families create strong communities, the program meets parents and children where they are, offering support that fits the realities of daily life in LHA housing.

Youth ages 11 to 17 take part in after-school programming that builds literacy, confidence, and leadership skills, giving them tools to succeed in school and beyond. At the same time, parents can access wraparound services including support groups, food assistance, and connections to community resources that ease the pressures of daily life, from putting meals on the table to finding stable employment. Across our community, children growing up in low-income households face a higher risk of falling behind academically, facing health challenges, and repeating cycles of financial hardship. Without consistent support, these challenges tend to build on each other, making it harder for families to reach lasting stability.

Aspire’s Youth & Family program exists to interrupt that cycle. Our team works alongside residents, not just for them, connecting families to the resources and skills they need to move toward independence and give their children a stronger start.

Only someone like you—who believes potential should never be limited by circumstance—can help young people build brighter futures.
