What We Do
Ways We're Making a Difference
Foster children in the system face a range of challenges in their educational success. Some of these challenges include an increased likelihood of experiencing trauma, higher rates of suspension and absenteeism, and higher rates of school immobility.
They can engage in constructive, organized, and supervised interactions that support learning when they work in pairs and small groups. These methods encourage intellectual growth by requiring foster children to balance their own beliefs and those of others.

WHY WE DO IT
Passion Behind the Purpose
Amore Transitional Group Inc. is dedicated to improving the lives of young women at-risk, disadvantaged, and those exiting the foster care system, through education, skill development, and self-sufficiency. In partnership with Cousia Towns the Beauty Company, Amore's home base serves as a beauty incubator for the broken. Our nonprofit pays it forward by "Changing Faces and Changing Lives" focusing on connecting to the community with educational workshops, STEAM programs "S.E.E.D.S," skill and building strength through the inner and outer self, and self-empowerment. We cater to the foster care system, juvenile justice system youth, and domestic violence victims.
There are not many programs that are specifically designed to meet the needs of emancipated youth in a way that is gender and culturally sensitive. Girls who leave foster care are more likely to experience domestic abuse, unplanned pregnancies, sexual exploitation and trafficking, sexually transmitted diseases like HIV/AIDS, and poverty. Thousands of foster care girls can be helped each year by addressing these issues in a way that takes specific and careful account of experiences as they relate to womanhood.
