Departure Lounge with The Empowerment Challenge

Episode 340,   Sep 19, 2019, 03:57 AM

The Empowerment Challenge and the idea behind the universal hub was born in 2017 from a small group of local women giving back to their community, mentoring younger mums.
It became apparent to the members there was a gap within services and these younger mums had difficulties finding a service which would fully support their needs.
The Empowerment Challenge specifically provide services to support the wellbeing of the younger mums under the age of 26 and those who birthed their child under 26.
Their point of difference being, no younger mum will age out of our service, they are welcome for as long as they need, if they fit in with the criteria, and work with other services to facilitate warm hand overs and promote smooth transitional engagement, allowing for time to build trusting relationships between participants and staff.
