We commit to serving the "Micahs" in Northwest Arkansas
by giving them skills to be a ​productive member of society,
​opportunities to achieve higher education, and training in basic life skills. ​

Many people are unaware of the number of young men living under private or public programs who reach adulthood without the necessary resources, relationships, and skills. 

On the outside, you may never know that there are issues, but many of young men are experiencing homelessness.  You may find them sleeping in their car, on a friend's couch, or possibly under a bridge. 

Without adequate resources the results can be drug use, higher crime rates, thoughts of suicide and emotional trauma. It has become evident that, for young men in particular, there are not adequate resources for those who find themselves in this situation. 

Each of our participants will have a story as unique as the individual; however, there are characteristics they share: 

• They often have broken relationships and nonexistent healthy social supports. 
• They are either in a crisis situation or transitioning out of a foster home or group home and looking for an alternative to homelessness, i.e., in an emergency shelter, in transitional housing, sleeping on a friend’s couch, or exiting an institution where they temporarily resided.
• They lack the self-confidence to advocate for themselves to gain the resources they need.
