To assist displaced workers, independent contractors, sole proprietors, or others who might need help with healing, recovery, and life transformation assistance. To assist with family economic recovery, health, and wellness in vulnerable communities. To educate and coach individuals, organizations, and communities to assist with growth and advancement. In 2024, our organization continued to focus its efforts on the Southwest LA Recovery Project for Small Businesses, Workers, Families, and Individuals. We reached multiple disaster impacted clients and workshop attendees who needed our assistance. We worked in a case management approach for some impacted clients and provided educational services to others who needed help. Some professional services included disaster case management, workforce development, training, education, social services, business coaching, assistance with business filings, counseling small businesses and nonprofits, grant support, prayer partners, housing, referrals to collaborators, and other services. In a small project, we reached more than our 10 required clients in the Calcasieu Parish Police Jury, Community Services Block Grant Project to provide Business Assistance and Employment Assistance to low-income Calcasieu residents to help them improve competencies and move towards self-sufficiency. In July, we had our first Shining STARS Business and Leadership Summer Program for youth. During the three days, we reached 18 youth from 10 to 16 years old from three parishes in Southwest LA. The event was held at the United Way of SWLA training room in Calcasieu Parish.
