Empowering Potential: Lighthouse Youth & Family Services

In place of the 2021 Beacon of Light Humanitarian Awards Gala, Lighthouse produced a television special, Empowering Potential.

Empowering Potential features the life-changing stories of young people and families you’ve helped through Lighthouse, stories of courage, resilience, love, and hope. You’ll meet a young mother escaping homelessness, a Lighthouse foster parent who welcomes kids with open arms when their world is darkest, a nurse concerned about her baby’s development, and a Lighthouse specialist helping young people heal and grow.
