What We Do

What We Do

Our Ready-Up Service Center is a unique warehouse space designed to provide essential items when you need them most. More than just a physical location, our Ready-Up Service Center embodies a holistic approach with five foundational building blocks: voluntariness, individualization, prevention, and forward movement. Our mission is to inspire hope, promote resilience, and empower individuals to embark on a journey of self-improvement.

The initial steps in providing an effective solution which will benefit individuals for a lifetime is first to listen to what they need; evaluate the skills and needs then research and provide the available resources. If we don’t have a program that matches the needs of our youth, we have spent time building relationships, networked connections within the community.


5 Building Blocks (TTICC)

Transitional Age Planning

At STORM Center of Hope & Service, we recognize that the transition to adulthood can be an intricate journey, especially for young individuals with a background in foster care. This phase often presents unique and formidable challenges as they suddenly find themselves responsible for crucial life decisions.


For these youth, the shift to independence can feel overwhelming. They must swiftly learn to make critical decisions, advocate for their personal needs, manage finances and healthcare choices, pursue higher education, seek employment, secure housing, and access essential resources—all while navigating a world that may seem unfamiliar.


Our "Transformational Age Planning" program is designed to provide comprehensive support during this crucial phase of life. We stand alongside these young individuals, offering guidance, resources, and a caring community to help them overcome the hurdles they encounter.


Our commitment is to empower them with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed in this transformative period. We understand that their journey is unique, and we are here to provide personalized assistance, ensuring that they are well-equipped to chart their path toward self-sufficiency.

The Village

"The Village" stands as a sanctuary—a safe space where youth find the freedom to express themselves and reclaim their voices. Here, we offer a nurturing environment that encourages open dialogue, allowing young individuals to pose questions that may have long remained unasked.


We understand that many voices, especially those of young people, have often gone unheard or have been stifled. "The Village" is a place of restoration, where these silenced voices are given the opportunity to speak, to be heard, and to be valued.


Our mission within "The Village" is simple yet powerful: to provide a platform for self-expression, to encourage curiosity, and to create a supportive community where young individuals can find the answers to questions that may have been suppressed or overlooked.


Join us at STORM Center of Hope & Service in fostering an environment where all voices are not only heard but celebrated. Together, we inspire hope, promote self-sufficiency, and empower the youth to become confident, inquisitive individuals who shape their own futures.

Individual

Tailored Assistance: Your journey is unique, and so is our support. We provide personalized resources and guidance to meet your specific needs.

Cultural

In our commitment to transforming negative climates and promoting inclusivity, we recognize that many young people may lack the skills needed to develop and maintain healthy relationships. This is where our focus on character building, positive body image, mental and emotional well-being, and peer support comes into play. These aspects are fundamental to empowering youth and nurturing positive, celebratory relationships.


At STORM, we are dedicated to inspiring hope, promoting self-sufficiency, and advocating for a future where all youth can thrive in healthy, supportive, and culturally enriched environments.

Community

Our goal is to foster resilience, empower individuals, and build stronger, more connected communities. Through education, engagement, and collaboration, we aim to create a positive impact in the lives of those we serve.


Volunteer

Our work is only possible because of dedicated volunteers. That’s why Storm Center of Hope & Service Inc, provides extensive community service and volunteer opportunities for anyone looking for ways to help make a difference.
