La La Workforce Development
Empowering Foster Youth for the Future
The LaLa Workforce Development Program is our cornerstone initiative, designed to support foster youth ages 17–25 who are preparing to, or have recently, transitioned out of the foster care system. This stage of life can be filled with uncertainty, and our commitment is to stand alongside these young adults as a catalyst for growth and transformation.
Our holistic approach addresses both personal and professional development, equipping participants with the tools, skills, and resources they need to thrive. By combining hands-on experience, mentorship, and wraparound support, we create a path toward independence and lasting success.
