Our Organizational Story:

There are over 200 military installations around the world- “home” to over 300,000 military teens. These teens move an average of seven times during their school-aged years and will say goodbye to more significant figures in their life by 18, than many will in their entire lifetime. Home isn’t a location for them, but a sense of belonging and community. The questions of identity and belonging that all teens face become even more challenging to answer in the midst of having to start over and meet new friends at each location.

This is where our field staff may be the difference in a military teen’s life by being in their world, walking alongside them, and creating a community where they experience the truth of God’s love and purpose for them. Providing a space where military teens can develop friendships and connections, it gives them a safe place to experience laughter, build hope, and generate the resiliency that life requires of us all. This position would be administrative support for our field staff.
