About Us
Empower U. is a learning organization that strives to continuously support children, families, and communities through providing innovative and sustainable empowerment and therapeutic programming.
What We Believe
Empower U. seeks to empower through being empowered first. We empower our community resource providers by offering a unique course of intensive training, development, and continuing education programming so that they may, in turn, empower children and families in execution of their service to them. It is our goal to partner with competent, caring, and well-trained individuals who are responsive to the needs of our children, their families, and the communities we serve.
Elevating Counselor Standards and Community Partnerships
Each Empower U. counselor meets, if not exceeds, the State educational and training requirements for the service level that they provide. Our agency provides community resource partners with career training and development, a supportive work environment, and knowledgeable leadership and direction. We strive to create an eco-system that is rich in communication and support to spark the kind of innovation that translates provider field experiences into service and programming opportunities offered through Empower U. – thus increasing our value proposition to the children and families that we serve.
Testimonials
”My grandson just started a few weeks ago with the wonderful mentors at Empower U. and he loves the time spent with them. He has gone to parks, the movies, Jets training camp… Every time he goes there is something different. During the day he spends some time at the center playing and after he goes on a outing. He has kind people all around him and his self-esteem has improved in this short time. Thank you to Chad and Wesley. I wish we met them a long time ago! I will say people have different personalities and some might not be as impressed, but my child is learning and getting exposed to life in a safe and caring environment.”
