WE BELIEVE

There are three ways to support and empower change in a community: relief, rehabilitation, and development.

Through an evidence-based development strategy, I Pour Life programs provide an opportunity for longterm, sustainable change for the individual and the greater community. With the right opportunities and influence, I Pour Life believes anyone can thrive.

EVIDENCE-BASED DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS

LifeStrengths

LifeStrengths is the answer to the growing need for developing at-risk and homeless youth in our communities. Youth are nominated to LifeStrengths through a local agency partner or school and are paired with a LifeCoach to begin 1-on-1 development through coaching. The LifeCoach guides each youth to dream of a brighter future, set goals, celebrate achievements, and bring a network of caring community members alongside them on their journey to self-sufficiency.
