The Institute teaches proprietary life skill workshops and hands-on, individualized techniques using the Van of Promise to help transitionals develop life skills. The Institute and Van of Promise focuses on life skills needed to carry out the day-to-day operations of independent living, such as:

Van of Promise

The Van of Promise is a fun, comfortable, and safe environment for the transitional to activate the inner child and decrease their anxiety and stress.

Workshops

Our discovery group workshops are designed to address issues relevant to today’s transitionals and the life skills needed in today’s challenging environment.

Our Mission

Our mission is to coach and enable the transitional to reason, understand and cope with their thoughts, experiences and knowledge while transitioning them to productive adulthood. The Institute will help the transitional build life skills necessary to handle emotional and physical stress to foster independence and self-love. 

Life Path Institute will always create a safe, trusting environment, and enable open and honest two-way communications. The transitional will feel compassion and kindness while recognizing and appreciating their individuality.
