Thrive
FREE COACHING TO REACH YOUR GOALS
The Thrive program is a long-term mentoring initiative to enhance economic mobility for individuals and families in South Hampton Roads. Rather than providing immediate financial assistance, Thrive focuses on empowering participants to achieve goals such as reducing debt, increasing income, changing careers, and planning for the future through sustained support and guidance. Capacity is limited.
- Find financial freedom
- Buy a home
- Change careers
- Plan for the future
- Advance your education

*These are not guaranteed, just possible outcomes of goals that can be set through our Thrive program.
Thrive is a long-term mentoring program and not an immediate financial assistance program. Individuals enrolled in the program may receive direct financial support with rent, mortgage, or utilities if it aligns with their goals, or if urgency occurs for them while in the program. To receive housing relief, individuals must actively be in the program and complete certain steps.*
