Empowering Former Foster Women: Hope + Vine is Changing Lives Through Mentorship and Employment

The mission of Hope + Vine is to equip young women who age out of foster care to live with purpose and freedom. Hope + Vine provides mentorship and employment to these young women and participants are trained to be artisans - making jewelry, apparel and other accessories. It is within this space of employment that Rachael Smith, Executive Director of Hope + Vine, and staff are able to build authentic relationships and provide the resources that these young women need specifically. Hope + Vine provides all of its artisans mental health services, financial coaching, assistance with transportation and so much more! No foster kid has the same story. All participants of Hope + Vine receive individual, one on one coaching to help them get through issues that fall outside of therapy and a personalized, curated plan to help them get to where they want to be in life. Empowering former foster women is Hope + Vines charge and all in all to make true, lifelong impact. It means more to Rachael than to solely focus on meeting an immediate need but to not only change participants lives but the lives for generations to come!
