DIRECTION61:3 is a faith-based organization purposed with helping youth transition from foster care into society as thriving adults. Registered with the state of Texas in 2017, this ministry has full non-profit status as a 501c3 organization and was licensed in December 2020 by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services as a Child Placing Agency. We provide hpusing for all of our residents, ages ranging from 14 to 22 yrs old. Some are in currently in the foster care system, extended care and fully aged out that have come to our pregam after being homeless for some time.
We practice a holistic approach to aging-out by engaging foster youth in their teens, helping them during the transition process with career preparation, life-skills, and the building and establishment of life changing relationships. At the completion of their educational and relational goals we support them in career placement, the acquisition of affordable independent living, and the owning of their first car through our transportation initiative.
*We have a Certificate of Amendment for the name change from Oak Creek Place to Direction 61:3, it would not fit file to go with IRS letter but I am happy to send it upon request.
