Mission

Family Values for Life partners with families to cultivate communities that are spiritually empowered, mentally alert, physically fit and financially secure. Together we build capacities for families to network and leverage resources.

  • U-Turn 180 Youth Program - family meals, homework help, recreation, and creative arts workshops, camps during the summer, and facilitated discussion groups for high school students. 131 youth participated in 2023-24 programming. Reading program - as part of the youth program, we provide elementary students with before/after-school and 6-week summer reading support. 100% of students who attended 2024 Summer Reading Academy experienced an increase in literacy skills (and the rest maintained skills). This program is primarily supported by multi-year funding from Saint Paul Children's Collaborative. Back to School event - provides free backpacks with school supplies and connects families to community partners. In 2024, Family Values for Life distributed over 3800 backpacks filled with supplies, over 2000 hot meals, 20,455 pounds of produce, and 21,768 pounds of donated new clothes (socks, t-shirts, pants, pj's). In-kind value of clothing donations was $127,846. We served approximately 1050 families who had access to 34 community resources, bike helmets from the St. Paul Police Bike crew, bounce house, obstacle course, and more. More than 450 volunteer hours helped make this event possible.

The family coach made 358 referrals to additional families for other community resources.
