The mission of Our House, a Washtenaw County nonprofit, is to help young people
(age 14-25) successfully transition from foster care to adulthood. Our vision is that
they become successful, self-sufficient and can live independently with confidence.
​LAUNCH PAD:
Often foster alumni do not have the resources to find an apartment and sign a lease
on their own. For some they may not have the financial resources to pay the security deposit, and for others they may not have a relative who is willing to co- sign a lease
with them. And, still for others, they may lack the maturity or confidence to live on their
own. The Launch Pad program is geared for these youth and young adults.

HOUSING SCHOLARSHIPS:
This program is geared toward foster alumni who already have an apartment or
college dorm yet are in need of assistance to mitigate the financial burden of in-
dependent living. Participants must have a current lease and be employed and/or
in school.

We’re very excited to announce the expansion of our LAUNCH PAD program!
With support from our community and donors, we’ve secured a house where all
LAUNCH PAD participants will have a home and community. Our on-site resident
manager will manage the day-to-day operations of the home, guide residents in understanding and applying basic life management skills, and create a safe, nur-
turing and organized environment for all residents.
