Why we exist
"Our mission is to design engaging educational programs that equip young parents with the tools, skills, and support needed to sustain a healthy work-life balance."
"We plant hope in the heart to grow strength in the soul."
About Us
Community Link is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to empowering young parents through education and support.
Our vision is to help young parents build stable, fulfilling lives and maintain a healthy work-life balance through comprehensive programs in parenting, life skills, and workforce development, grounded in social-emotional learning.
We offer a 12-week readiness program that prepares participants for both the workforce and parenthood, connecting them directly with employment opportunities. Our services include GED/HSED support, career training, early childhood development, and targeted workshops all designed to create lasting change.
At Community Link, we don’t just support young parents we stand with them.
Our Story
Community Link Inc. was founded by a group of dedicated community members who, in 2023, recognized the urgent need to expand educational opportunities for young parents. What began as grassroots efforts quickly evolved by 2024 into the formal establishment of Community Link Inc. as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Since then, we have continued to grow- strengthening our support network, deepening community engagement, and empowering young families to thrive.
The Difference We Can Make Together!
"A Day in Their Shoes"
Telling the story behind our work.
“A Day in Their Shoes” emerged from a heartfelt commitment to raise awareness and create compassionate, practical solutions for young parents facing overwhelming challenges. At Community Link, we saw firsthand how many young parents especially those under 18 encounter systemic barriers like limited access to affordable childcare, stable employment, secure housing, and emotional support. These obstacles often trap families in cycles of poverty, making it difficult to build stable and hopeful futures.
Through genuine conversations and deep listening, we discovered a gap in programs designed specifically for young parents. Their stories often go unheard, their resilience overlooked, and their potential undervalued. "A Day in Their Shoes” was created to change that.
This campaign exists to:
- Share untold stories of resilience, strength, and determination among young parents.
- Highlight the systemic challenges that make it harder for them to thrive.
- Increase public understanding of their day-to-day realities.
- Mobilize resources, volunteers, and donations to support childcare, training, and comprehensive support services.
- Build a caring village where young parents feel seen, supported, and empowered.
Ultimately, “A Day in Their Shoes” ensures that young parents so often navigating life in silence are no longer invisible. It’s more than a campaign; it’s a voice of many stories crying for help, reaching for someone to walk alongside them as they overcome challenges and celebrate their successes. Together, we can nurture hope, ignite change, and uplift every young parent on their journey to thrive.
