Giving Resiliency to Others

SOLUM SOLUTIONS - Paths to A Better Life Forward

Over the last eight years ?we’ve seen over 794 graduates of Life Skills, Parenting, Anger Management, and Mental Health First Aid. We are here for you and your community impact.

Who are these??They are adults and teens working through probation and parole in nonmetro/rural counties.?While these areas deal with addiction, abuse, family violence, crime, anxiety, and depression as heavily as any deep urban neighborhood of Houston or Dallas/Ft Worth or Oklahoma City or Tulsa, they have extremely limited to no resources.?Working with county officials in probation and parole and the judicial system, we see results. Take this note from S.R. in North Texas. She nailed it.?She graduated earlier this year.

I am doing fantastic and what about you? I am doing great at my job and in my relationship. It's almost as if all I did was take your class in order to get my life back on track, to be honest,I think maybe it was the whole frame of mind that had me hindered.

COVID frankly created a disaster and pushed us into innovation to continue reaching these working to fufill a life mission of a better life forward.?It shuttered our workshops in person and forced us to convert everything to intensive integrated interactive mentored delivery.?Wow! After two years of recording, integrating interactive questions, adding real life application, and mentoring in real time along with group zooms, we have a system like none other.?

?It isn't "online" training though it is available through our app directly 24/7 when the participant can attend to it.??

• Most online has no interaction with a real person. Every answer the participant gives in applying to their situation is reviewed and responded by a trained mentor assigned to that person.??
• Most online has no group component.?Every participant attends a weekly zoom group where they interact with others from similar nonmetro/rural counties and get and give relevant life application and affirmation.?None of us falls alone and none of us gets back up alone.
• Most online has no personal verification or audit tracking.?Our system monitors every minute the participant connects and requires face to face verification of progress.?

The United States is the most incarcerated nation in the world.?Since the 80's, we have quadrupled incarceration in prison, jail, probation, and parole.?Some 4 million live in community supervision of probation and parole and some 3 million in prison and jail.?Your help shapes an individual connected to a family connected to a community.?We can't change people.?We can give them a just chance at a life mission of a better life forward by skills, problem solving education, and mentored application of principles new to them.?It works in Texas.?It works in all nonmetro/rural communities.

In the last two years, we have worked to modify delivery of the core workshops for interactive/online. This enables us to expand to multiple counties and assist.

To manage the expansion of services and assure maximum value for those with whom we work, we’ve developed a specific comprehensive approach to growth.?We've also expanded from our base in North Texas to 30 counties.

You can hear the full story here taken from a recent live cast and podcast with?Mission Matters / Adam Torres.

We are stuck.?To continue doing what we do takes patrons giving with outrageous generosity and it takes more mentors.?

Below are our plans for the next six months.?I'd love to see you and your company be a part of making this happen.
