🌟 About Us — DLJ Protects Society

 

Our Mission
DLJ Protects Society exists to love, protect, and uplift young people who too often fall through the cracks. We focus on youth ages 18–25 who have aged out of foster care, providing them with safe housing, healing environments, and paths toward self-sufficiency.

Why We Exist
Too many young adults step into the world without support — no safety net, no community, no place to call home. We believe every child deserves love beyond the system. That’s why we’re here: to build a bridge between foster care and full adulthood, grounded in dignity and care.

What We Do

• 🏠 Create sustainable housing with community and shared resources.

• 🌱 Teach life skills, from cooking to financial literacy to self-care.

• 💡 Offer education and creative spaces — from hands-on workshops to digital learning.

• 💞 Provide emotional support, mentorship, and real human connection.

Our Values

• Love first. Every policy, every program, every home we build begins with unconditional love.

• Safety always. We protect the youth we serve, and we protect the integrity of our mission.

• Transparency. We publish our work, our goals, and our vision openly. No hidden agendas.

• Community. We collaborate with local groups, families, and volunteers. Healing happens together.

Our Shield
We are a nonprofit built on clarity. Everything we create is for the public good. Every program is rooted in safety and love. Our website is our receipt — a living archive of our mission.
Anyone who tries to twist our intent will only reveal themselves. Because our work speaks for itself: we protect, we teach, we love.
