  The transition to adulthood can be a challenging experience for anyone, regardless of personal background, socioeconomic status, gender, identity or race. It is certainly more challenging for youth who do not have the economic, familial or social supports that can assist them to overcome the many challenges on their journey to self-sufficiency and independence. LIFE Skills Foundation aims to provide a safety net and support network for transition age youth in Durham, NC, that do not have “someone” to turn to for help.
- Carolina Outreach
  The Carolina Outreach Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Durham, NC, whose mission is to support the families of children, adolescents, and young adults with behavioral, emotional, and mental health disabilities by providing them opportunities for personal, social, and economic advancement.
