Our four
programs.

Every program at Spirit Refuge Foundation is designed with one goal in mind: giving families, adults, and young people the tools they need to build lasting stability — on their own terms.

Program 01 · Family Stabilization

Navigator Nest

Families navigating crisis deserve more than a referral list. Navigator Nest pairs every family with a dedicated Family Navigator who works alongside them — not for them — to build a personalized, achievable plan for stability.

Through individualized 30–90 day plans, families move through structured milestones across housing, finances, health, and education — with ongoing support at every step.

Assigned Family Navigator

Each family is matched with a consistent Navigator who provides accountability, advocacy, and wraparound support throughout their plan.

Individualized Stability Plans

Plans are co-created with families — addressing housing, finances, employment, childcare, and other immediate needs over 30, 60, or 90 days.

Milestone Tracking

Structured progress checkpoints keep families and Navigators aligned, celebrating wins and adapting plans as life changes.

"Stability isn't a destination — it's a daily practice, and no family should build it alone."

Program 02 · Adult Life Skills

LifeLaunch Labs

LifeLaunch Labs offers adults practical, real-world skill-building in focused 4–6 week cycles. Three distinct tracks meet participants where they are — whether they need to manage money, land a job, or grow as a parent.

Sessions are hands-on, community-centered, and designed for adults with busy lives and real responsibilities.

Program 04 · Resource Connection

Community Bridge Network

No one should go without because they didn't know where to turn. The Community Bridge Network connects families to the resources they need — through a living directory, quarterly community fairs, and a direct partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank.

We bridge the gap between need and support in Osceola and Polk Counties.
