What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Foster Care
EmberHope Youthville serves and supports more than 200 foster families across the state of Kansas. We recruit, qualify, train, and provide assistance with necessary items such as respite care, safety equipment, clothing, school supplies, and incidentals.
Newton Residential Campus
EmberHope Youthville’s residential program is rooted in faith and committed to caring for children in innovative ways that encourage their mental, physical, and creative growth through therapeutic forms of expression. Our Newton residential campus serves girls and young women ages 6-18, sparking change through help with life skills, coping skills, social skills, problem-solving, and the ability to develop and maintain healthy relationships. Our mission is to use trauma-informed services to help these children safely return to their families and communities.
Adoption
EmberHope Youthville is dedicated to finding a forever home for every Kansas foster child. Through our partnership with Wendy’s Wonderful Kids (WWK), a signature program of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, we bring children waiting to be adopted from foster care one step closer to safe, loving, and permanent homes. EmberHope Youthville is proud to be the only WWK grant recipient in the state of Kansas.
Functional Family Therapy
Functional Family Therapy (FFT) is an evidence-based family therapy model proven to reduce recidivism among juvenile offenders. Its highly structured model identifies each individual family’s risk factors, builds on its strengths, and uses specific methods of intervention to motivate the family and maintain change. FFT focuses on enhancing protective factors within the family, increasing parental supervision and involvement, and reducing risk factors.
