Unlock Potential. Inspire Growth. Transform Lives.

Our educational programs are more than opportunities—they’re pathways to discovering strengths, building confidence, and creating lasting change. At Empowering Families, we provide the tools, knowledge, and support that empower community members to advocate for themselves, pursue their dreams, and thrive. Every step of learning is a step toward a stronger, more vibrant Panhandle community.

Our Programs

  • Multicultural Youth Leadership Conference

    Ignite resilience, self-appreciation, and a vision for the future at our annual conference held every last Wednesday and Thursday in September.

  • Youth Empowerment Camp

    Elevate youth potential in our annual summer camp! Focused on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math), facilitated by local educators, artists, and guest presenters, including the Nebraska State Patrol.

  • Financial Literacy

    Our Financial Literacy Education program equips community members with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed financial decisions. Participants learn to manage budgets, save effectively, understand credit, and plan for the future. By fostering confidence and financial independence, this program empowers individuals and families to build stability, achieve their goals, and create a stronger foundation for themselves and their community.

  • Scholarship Saturdays

    Scholarship Saturdays was developed to help guide first generation college students,
    immigrant students, and their families through the college process. Our community lost its
    Upward Bound program for first generation college students several years ago and this has
    been a significant void since then. Scholarship Saturdays was created to help fill this gap.
