ACTS WITH CONFIDENCE – Life Skills Program
A life-skills program for Denver’s homeless men that offers opportunities to build their confidence through various programs:
• One-on-One Cofidence Coaching
• Nutrition Coaching
• Styling and Photo Sessions
• Business Center with Computers
• Fitness Center with Equipment
These steps are to give them confidence to land that job and get their own housing!
Brad Askren’s original program was created for a group of homeless men living in the ACTS Resource Center in October 2011. As Brad launched his for-profit business, Thrive With Confidence (www.thrivewithconfidence.com), he was approached and asked to help this group of men begin to rebuild their lives. Brad worked with this group over several months. They were able to take advantage of the following:
• One-on-One Coaching With Brad
• Group Meetings
• Employment Counseling, Including Resume Writing
• A Makeover Day Including Wardrobe Styling & Haircuts
• A Night on the Town
As the program progressed, Brad noticed a remarkable change in the men. Many of them were able to achieve goals that they thought were impossible before. Four of the men were able to secure employment, and one got back in touch with his family after many years.
Through Brad’s experience with the men of ACTS Resource Center, the vision of the Thrive With Confidence Foundation Center was able to come to life, and Brad was able to envision just how much he could change lives through this program.
