Oasis is our vision to help support youth aging out of foster care. We are planning on doing this by creating an Intentional Neighboring Community (INC). You can read more about it on our website here.
The Why
The simple answer to the question, "Why would you want to do this?" is: We are failing. This graphic pretty much sums it up.
INC Approach
- Assistance is community driven
- Based off the universal need for caring relationships
- Those facing serious social challenges become assets to the community
- Capacity for ordinary people of all ages to care about and for one another
What Does This Look Like
Here is a little idea of what something like this could look like. We are very excited to see what the future holds.
Housing Key
Blue - aging out youth
Yellow - Single family homes
Orange - Senior housing, singles, small families
