About The Journey Forward
Mission: Uplifting families on their journey to achieve goals that foster their emotional, financial, and personal successes while building thriving communities.
Vision: Advancing an equitable world where families are leaders in their lives and communities. The Journey Forward is committed to helping increase the vibrancy of our community by helping families address the barriers that prevent sustainable living.
Originally established in 2007 as Workforce and Human Development Services, The Journey Forward has transformed into a local pioneer of The Family Centered Coaching model. We work with resolve to assist all of our clients in moving forward, working toward their goals, and striving for their dreams.
What we do: Family Centered Coaching is a powerful approach that helps families and individuals address a multitude of challenges. From financial capability coaching, re-employment, mental health, and trauma services, The Journey Forward offers the support families and individuals need to recover, prosper and thrive.
The Power Behind Family Centered Coaching: Our Family-Centered Coaching program recognizes that long-term poverty, lack of employment, and underemployment put a severe strain on the entire family. This strain goes well beyond financial uncertainties. Family Centered Coaching supports the whole family and acknowledges the family as the experts in their own lives. We work in partnership with families to determine family goals related to finances, parenting, education, trauma & wellness, and employment. Addressing all these concerns is a formula for empowerment and success. Family Centered Coaching provides families the tools to access supports and works as the family’s partner in their journey to success and financial independence.
This holistic approach is more attuned with how families operate day-to-day, considering the challenges of work, finances, health, housing, and child-related issues when considering family goals and plans for success. Families do not look at their lives in a one-dimensional way, nor should they approach overcoming obstacles and reaching their dreams in a one-dimensional way.
The Advantage of Family Centered Coaching: Families are faced with a variety of challenges that make it difficult to thrive and overcome the many obstacles low-to-moderate income families face. Families and individuals have many concurrent needs. Seeking out services from various sources places an unnecessary burden, often derailing the opportunity for success. Family Centered Coaching brings together services to take the burden of coordination off families. They focus their energy and attention on identifying their needs and strengths, setting goals, and making a plan.
The Strength of Family Centered Coaching: Our experienced team focuses on serving families and connecting them to resources that foster stability, support, and empowerment. We provide some services in-house:
- Financial Capability Education and Coaching
- Trauma & Wellness Service
We partner with Employment & Employer Services (E&ES), a leader in the field of workforce development and employment. E&ES has a 38-year track record of providing comprehensive employment services throughout Chicagoland.
