Beauty for Ashes 2.0 and the Wraparound Philosophy
BFA integrates a Wraparound approach to support the population we serve. This approach involves a collaborative community structure that works together to heal, educate, empower and help to employ each individual.
BFA provides behavioral counseling, personal/career coaching, life-skills training, parenting training, vocational training, and higher education preparation support. Additionally, we develop business plans for nascent entrepreneurs and those that would benefit from a self-employment track.
​
While we do not provide medical, child-care, housing, and transportation services, we collaborate with community agencies, State and local municipalities to tailor individualized support unique to each individual.
​
​
...to give unto them beauty in the place of their ashes, the oil of joy in exchange for their tears.
Isaiah 61:3
