How are you sustaining at BLB?
At Be Like Brit, our goal is to ensure the bright futures of Brit's kids. As our oldest children transition into adolescence and young adulthood, we recognize the importance of continuing our support and including them as cherished members of the Be Like Brit family.
The Transition Program is crafted with our teens in mind, aiming to fully support their successful journey into young adulthood. This program provides a robust support system built on seven key pillars:
Focuses on the care of self and others, emphasizing personal and physical health care, enrichment, adherence to house rules, and development of life skills.
Teaches individuals how to handle various types of emergencies and helps them become familiar with their neighborhood safely and independently.
Prepares the children for life and success beyond Be Like Brit, including learning English as a second language, pursuing college and higher education, attending trade schools, and accessing scholarships.
Helps individuals discover their career interests, learn financial literacy, manage their funds, read financial contracts, understand taxation systems, and participate in the entrepreneurial program.
Teaches individuals how to utilize and navigate technology, including phones, computers, and social media, safely and effectively.
Integrates continued development of English, job skills, and life skills. This program supports individuals wherever they may travel to continue their education and careers.
Encourages individuals, once settled into their adult lives, to give back to their communities and peers through projects that showcase the knowledge, skills, and talents they have cultivated.
Professional mentors and caregivers dedicated to guiding and supporting teens through their personal and educational development.
Providing ongoing learning opportunities, including high school, vocational training, and higher education to enhance their skills and knowledge.
Teaching essential life skills such as budgeting, cooking, and time management to prepare them for living on their own.
Encouraging teens to discover their interests, strengths, and passions through various activities and personal development programs.
Equipping teens with job readiness skills, internships, and employment opportunities to help them gain confidence and independence in the local workforce.
Promoting active participation in community service and leadership roles to foster a sense of responsibility and connection to their community.
Ensuring access to healthcare, counseling, and support services to promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being.
Through the Transition Program, we continue to nurture our young adults, equipping them with the tools and confidence needed for adult life. Our mission is to raise and support the next generation of leaders who will make a positive impact in their communities.
