At the HALO Home, our youth work daily on goals to help them move toward living independently in a safe environment. Their goals are structured around focus areas such as education, employment, health and well-being, parenting, relationships and more.
To set these goals, and to stay motivated, our youth start with establishing their vision for their life, free of the trauma they have experienced. The moment they can picture themselves with a better life and know that they deserve that life, is so magical.
By providing a welcoming and safe space, some simple art materials like magazines, poster boards, makers and glue, and some good company, their visions for their lives starts to become a little more clear. Making a vision board for their goals and progress through the HALO Home program is a great way to get to know our youth, and help them progress toward their dreams. Their completed boards hang in their rooms as a reminder each morning of what they are working toward.
Thank you for helping to support their vision and serving as the foundation of a family for children without one.
