At Integrity Arts Foundation, we support the homeless, women, and youth by providing resources, transitional housing, and innovative arts-based programs that nurture healing, growth, and self-sufficiency.
Join us in making a difference one brushstroke, one story, one life at a time.
Mission
At Integrity Arts Foundation, our mission is to empower individuals facing homelessness, at-risk women, and vulnerable youth by integrating the healing power of the creative arts into personal development. We are committed to helping them rediscover their self-worth, rebuild their lives, and become contributing members of society.
Vision
Our vision is to build a network of transitional homes that serve not just as shelter, but as sanctuaries for transformation. These spaces will provide access to mentorship, counseling, and creative arts therapy—enabling residents to restore balance in body, mind, and spirit while developing essential life and work skills.
We envision a society where no one is defined by their past, and everyone has the opportunity to thrive through creativity, community, and compassion.
Purpose
Integrity Arts Foundation exists to provide more than just temporary relief. We offer long-term empowerment by connecting underserved individuals with meaningful artistic expression and personal development tools. Our purpose is to:
- Restore dignity through artistic self-expression
- Provide safe transitional housing for individuals in crisis
- Cultivate talent and creativity to foster confidence and purpose
- Bridge gaps between need and opportunity through mentorship, education, and community engagement
- Break cycles of poverty and homelessness through skills development and holistic care
