Who We Are

Together We Thrive is a 501c3 non-profit serving vulnerable youth across North Texas. We commit to walking alongside our youth to help them achieve their goals, and reach a place of sustainability.

Our mission is to champion the advancement of every youth in North Texas who has been unjustly labeled.

Our vision is to positively influence youth across North Texas through one-on-one relationships with consistent, positive adults. It is through these relationships that we will transform lives that transform communities.

Supporting Vulnerable Youth Today for a Brighter Future Tomorrow

Many of the youth we serve are considered vulnerable and from underserved communities in North Texas. They are in survival mode - facing struggles like hunger, homelessness, and trauma.

In North Texas alone:

  • 1 in 3 youth will navigate life without a consistent adult.
  • 49.65% of students are considered “at-risk.”
  • More than 3,000 students are currently in foster care.
  • More than 16,500 students are experiencing homelessness.

We believe that one of the best ways to help transform our community is to step into the lives of these youth today, helping them rewrite their story and reach a place of sustainability.

 What We Do

We take a unique approach to supporting vulnerable youth. We employ full time, highly qualified, compassionate individuals to be our Life Coaches. We remove barriers for youth to get the support they deserve by serving in schools, transitional homes, and youth programs in our community each week.

Our Life Coaches help youth grow in the areas of relationships, identity, life skills, and kindness. Our Life Coaches influence youth in four key areas:

  • Improve Attendance
  • Improve Self-Efficacy
  • Increase Coping Skills
  • Successful Completion of School Year

Be The Difference

If you believe that every youth deserves someone who believes in them – someone cheering them on and helping them navigate life, GIVE HOPE this North Texas Giving Day. Your generous support is the difference for more than 600 youth in our community, with more waiting. Help youth grow from surviving to thriving, and gain the skills and confidence they need to dream big and accomplish their goals!

Needs

Our current staff is not able to serve the amount of vulnerable youth in need across North Texas. We critically need to raise funds so another Life Coach can team and provide the consistent, 1-on-1, Life Coaching that we know transforms lives! The starting salary of our Life Coaches is $50,000.
