"I'm very excited for this job opportunity... I would like to put a smile on people's faces."

Recently, Jesus completed his Liftoff placement at Mission of Deeds. We are excited to support our Associates to make long-lasting impacts on the community around them! 🛋️✨

Still glowing from last week’s Starbound Soirée celebrating Breaktime’s mission!🌟

Attendees were among the first to view New Horizons, our new documentary spotlighting the journeys of three Breaktime Associates. A huge shoutout Neasha, who joined us for a post-screening Q&A. 💙

Imagine not having a choice in when or where you sleep, eat, or simply get to feel safe.

Behind every housing insecure young person is a student, a friend, and a dream. When we stop defining people by their toughest days, we can help them build the stability they need to thrive.

"I feel like I have control again over where my life is going."

After facing family challenges and periods of homelessness with her daughter, Neasha decided it was time to take control back, finding a place to call home, and choosing her own path forward.

November is #NationalYouthHomelessnessAwarenessMonth, and this year, we’re focusing on a critical reality: the loss of control.

Young adults experiencing homelessness can lose control over their safety and autonomy. This month, join us in empowering them to take back control.

In honor of #WorldHomelessnessDay, let’s deconstruct the myth that "housing insecure young people don’t know how to save money."

The reality? You can’t budget your way out of systemic poverty.
