About Freedom Communities ()

Our mission at Freedom Communities (FC) is to drive holistic family and community transformation through innovative programs and real estate investments in the Freedom Drive Corridor.

Limiting our geographic service area allows us to go deep and work holistically, addressing the interconnections of a person's housing, education, mental and physical health, employment and network of support. With a tagline of "family-centered community transformation," we invest simultaneously in families and in infrastructure so that as families transform, their community does, too. Research shows that children cannot thrive in homes where their parents struggle economically, and low-income parents cannot succeed without meaningful support for their children. We center our programmatic work around a two-generation approach combining parent and child interventions to build family strength and optimal child development.

Our primary demographic is mothers with children aged 12 and below. We believe they have the most potential to impact the next generation but the least amount of access to resources to do so. We created our Moms Moving Forward (MMF) program in response.

MMF is a cash incentive program to drive upward mobility for mothers living in the Freedom Drive Corridor with at least one child under the age of 12. Our MMF program creates family stability by providing mothers with tools, mindset, and support network to transform their whole household. Through our 12-month, cohort-based program, women build sisterhood to help sustain their progress and get paid for their participation, removing barriers and rewarding progress. We employ Family Case Managers to work with moms and their children to set and meet goals to move their families forward. To date, we have launched 13 cohorts.

Role Overview

The Family Success Coach plays a pivotal role in guiding families toward sustainable progress. This is not a traditional case management role, it's a coaching-centered position focused on building trust, unlocking potential, and helping families chart a path toward self-sufficiency.
