  • Empowerment – We equip individuals with the tools, resources, and confidence to take control of their lives, break barriers, and create lasting change. True power comes from recognizing one’s own worth and potential.
  • Excellence – We believe in holding ourselves and others to high standards, knowing that personal growth and success come from discipline, accountability, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
  • Perseverance – Challenges and setbacks are part of life, but they don’t define us. We teach individuals to push forward, adapt, and stay the course, no matter how difficult the journey. Determination fuels transformation.
  • Courage – It takes bravery and accountability to step into new opportunities, rewrite your story, and embrace change. We stand with those who are ready to face challenges head-on and create a future of possibility.
  • Resilience – Like a rose breaking through concrete, resilience is the ability to rise, rebuild, and thrive despite obstacles. We nurture the strength within each individual to transform adversity into a foundation for success.

At Concrete Rose Foundation, we don’t just believe in second chances—we create pathways for empowerment, excellence, perseverance, courage, and resilience, ensuring that every individual has the opportunity to flourish.

Empowering Employment Connections

We recognize the crucial role that employment and career opportunities play in empowering BIPOC women who have experienced incarceration. Beyond providing support and empowerment, we understand the importance of fostering connections with individuals and organizations that can facilitate access to meaningful employment.

Through our network of resources and partnerships, we actively work to bridge the gap between our participants and potential employers, offering guidance, mentorship, and networking opportunities. By facilitating these connections, we aim to not only help individuals secure employment but also to foster long-term career success and financial stability.

We believe that by empowering BIPOC women with the tools and connections they need to succeed in the workforce, we can create lasting positive change in their lives and communities.
