Mission/Founders/Board
Our Mission:
We restore families – mind, body and spirit, through education, counseling, case management and supportive services.
Our Vision:
Our vision is to increase emotional, physical and spiritual health – one individual, one family, and one community at a time.
Our Founders:
Our founders, Kenneth and Karen Thompson have a passion for the family, having spent 10 years as foster parents to over a dozen abused and neglected children, another 10 years as nonprofit business owners servicing homeless families and low income elderly, and yet another 10 years as youth pastors in the Washington metropolitan area.
After 30 years of life coaching and pastoral coaching for countless families, the Thompson’s have seen from “ground zero” how broken individuals can negatively impact a society, as well as how emotionally and physically healthy individuals can spread healing to a society.
They have received numerous recognitions and awards over the years for their successful contributions to family and community health.
Our Board of Directors:
Our current Board is comprised of five directors who are skilled in the areas of administration, entrepreneurship, pastoring, public health education, social work, counseling, finance, and strategic planning.
