New Life Village Grant & Donor Relations Support VISTA

New Life Village Grant & Donor Relations Support VISTA

New Life Village provides a residential community where families seeking permanency for children impacted by foster care or trauma can seek healing in a safe and stable intergenerational Village. We are home to foster, adoptive, and kinship caregivers raising at-risk youth, as well as a cohort of supportive seniors who volunteer as surrogate grandparents, tutors, and mentors to Village children. Affordable housing is the stable foundation around which we build an array of programmatic supports designed to ensure caregiver success in raising children to permanency. Our onsite Trauma-Informed Wellness, Resilience, and Character Development Program includes case management and a wealth of onsite events. Our programming is intended to cultivate a rich sense of community in which multiple generations come together in support of positive outcomes for children. We host art workshops, movie nights, field trips, senior yoga, wellness workshops, homeownership courses, child bereavement sessions, and so much more.
