Project Title: The Lemonaid Club
Project Description:

The Lemonaid Club is the youth arm of our organization. It is for young ladies ages 13-18, and its main focus is on health education. There are activities and workshops that teach young women about the warning signs of endometriosis and other menstrual disorders. The club offers a safe place for young ladies to ask questions about their bodies and the changes of adolescence and young adulthood. We have speakers who will share insight on healthy choices. While we are not a sex education program, we will have classes that educate about STD transmission. Our primary demographic is African-American and Latina women. It is very important to provide health education to these young ladies because the rate of STDs, teenage pregnancy, and HIV occurs at a higher rate within this demographic.

In addition to the health component of the club, there will be fun activities that promote sisterhood and self-esteem among young ladies. We will have movie night, trips to the skating rink, etiquette sessions, and a trip to an upscale restaurant will be the culminating event. Prior to the trip, the young ladies will have had etiquette sessions and learn the correct silverware to use in fine dining settings. They will also learn social graces such as conversations, cell phone usage in public, and dressing appropriately for different settings. All participants of the club will receive a four month supply of feminine hygiene products. We will provide chromebooks for those who need them, as some of the programming is virtual. Meals will be provided at all in-person events.

Project Title: Support Service
Project Description:

Tiny’s Village is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing comprehensive supportive services, programming, and training to transition-age youth/young adults 18-24.

Tiny’s Village has a rich history of empowering youth offering compassionate support, structured programming, and consistent service delivery. Our mission is to provide intentional and proactive support, focusing on prevention and making a lasting impact on youth experience.

Tiny’s Village believes in a housing first approach, working to reduce barriers to housing instead of making young people meet requirements before they can achieve housing stability. Our services include:

Housing Services

· Housing navigation: Tiny’s Village has Housing Navigators that connects youth to housing placement through referrals to, housing choice voucher, permanent housing, transitional housing, interim housing, shared housing, affordable housing, and short-term rental assistance from 6 months to 1 year support. We locate available units, establish relationships with property owners or management companies. We advocate and act as the liaison. In 2023 we made 53 referrals to housing.

· Move in support: When a match has been made, we provide problem-solving assistance through the Los Angeles Housing Service Authority (LAHSA) for security deposits, 2 months of rental assistance, utilities assistance and food cards. Case Mangers provide on-going supportive services for 1 year. This support ensures they have the resources they need to thrive and remain stably housed.

Workforce Development and Employment Services

· Nail Care Unlimited: This is an enrichment program that teaches youth 16-24 the art of nail care technology with a focus on salon management. This is an 8-week program that provides apprenticeship training that will lead them into an accredited cosmetology school to apply learned skills for the completion of the state required exam for licensing. Youth will then be placed into employment as a licensed Manicurist within 30 days of completion.

· Entrepreneur training: Responding to the interest of youth in becoming self-employed or having their own business we created program in 2018 that teaches business development and business management in concession stand catering. This program provides direct employment placement into Scrappies Nachos events and catering.

We cater to various segments of the youth population, including emerging youth/young adults, at-risk youth/young adults, those aspiring to become leaders, low-income youth/young adults, disadvantaged youth, homeless youth/young adults, those exiting systems such as foster care and institutions, undocumented youth, and individuals facing mental health challenges and/or trauma.

Tiny’s Village embraces an inclusive philosophy, welcoming all young people without specific restrictions. Unlike many service providers, individuals don’t need to prove homelessness, foster care status, or any specific criteria to access our services. This approach eliminates barriers, ensuring that every young person seeking support is welcomed and assisted.

Our organization adopts a holistic and comprehensive approach to youth support. Beyond addressing immediate needs, we focus on long-term development, providing a wide range of services such as mentorship, leadership development, life skills guidance, housing preparation, artistic skill development, resource navigation, mental health support/awareness, career/employment exploration, community engagement, family reunification, and entrepreneur training.
