Vision
We are equipping future leaders to change cycles of poverty in their environments through healing, hope and community empowerment.
Mission
The mission of The Aloe Family Inc. is to provide opportunities for empowerment, well-being, self-sufficiency and healing to resilient communities and individuals facing challenges of poverty or lack of family support
Values
Compassion (everyone deserves a chance)
Commitment (resilience, professionalism, good stewardship)
Collaboration (teamwork, accountability)
The Aloe Family is committed to serving all individuals in need, regardless of race, religion, or national origin. Our organization has a commitment to compliance with state and federal law, while ensuring equal access to essential services for all.
What We Do
Sustainable, Empowering, Trauma Informed, long term support.
Job Skills Training
Education
In Nashville, the majority of families we serve come from diverse backgrounds. We don’t want language barriers to be another challenge for them. Each week we offer homework help for the students and free English classes for the Adults.
In Mexico, we have the “Aloe House” which not only houses students in need, but also acts as a free resource for students in the community to have access to computers, printers and school supplies. We also offer tutoring, apprenticeship programs, and support for students internationally without access to school.
Hope and Healing
In order to allow individuals to focus on sustainable growth, we must at times address physical , emotional, and spiritual needs. All of our program staff have been trained and certified in Trauma Competent Care, and we provide students and participants with resources for therapy, fresh food, emergency care and more.
