 Bold Steps is designed to support teen mothers in foster care and young moms aging out of the system, providing them with the resources, mentorship, and stability they need to thrive.

Our programs benefit:

• Expectant and parenting teens in foster care who need guidance and a strong support system.
• Young mothers aging out of foster care seeking independence, life skills, and stability.

Through mentorship, life skills training, and community support, Bold Steps helps young mothers build a brighter future for themselves and their children.

• Mentorship Program – Connecting teen moms with dedicated mentors who provide guidance, emotional support, and life skills training.
• Community Workshops – Offering hands-on training in financial literacy, parenting, education, job readiness, and personal development.
• Startup Funds – Helping establish essential programs, secure resources, and build the foundation needed to launch and grow Bold Steps.
• Housing & Basic Needs Support – Assisting young mothers with essential resources, including clothing, baby supplies, and access to safe housing options.
• Career & Education Assistance – Helping young moms apply for scholarships, enroll in vocational training, and prepare for the workforce.

Donors can choose where their funds go, ensuring their contributions support the areas they are most passionate about. Every dollar helps empower, equip, and elevate young mothers, breaking cycles and creating lasting change.
