BUILDING MOMENTUM
We envision a country where the basic and socioemotional needs of our youth are met; a country that understands that justice-involved youth often lack resources, have experienced trauma and require holistic support; a country whose communities come together to support this vision.
We believe that this can be a reality for young people nationwide. We are building clear pathways out of incarceration so today’s justice-involved youth have access to resources, opportunity and trauma-informed support such that they and their future generations can thrive, not just survive.
Share
It’s crucial to us that the expansion of Café Momentum has the support from the youth justice champions and activists. Inspire your community and share the stories of the Momentum model with your organization, friends and family.
Engage your community by hosting a screening and lead conversations that BUILD MOMENTUM in your community and workplace.

Momentum Advisory is working to expand
Café Momentum across the country because we know that these young people will rise to whatever level of expectation is set for them -
if provided with the appropriate resources, support and opportunities.
But we also know we can't do it alone.

expansion process below.

It all started with Café Momentum, a nonprofit restaurant and culinary training facility based in Dallas, Texas, that provides employment, life skills training and wraparound care to youth exiting juvenile detention facilities.
Now we’re working to expand our model nationwide. Consider a donation to help support our work, its message and the expansion of more restaurants like Café Momentum.
