Living Advantage, Inc.

The eLockbox™ initiative provides foster and systems-impacted youth (FSIY) & low-access households secure, digital access to vital life records (VLR)— such as birth certificates, Social Security cards, photo IDs. & medical documents, not limited to—ensuring continuity of care & resources by receiving social services benefits, education, career & support services, even during disasters like the wildfires. By eliminating paper-based systems, the project reduces carbon footprints and enhances climate resilience for vulnerable communities.

V.A.L.E. supports foster & system-impacted youth (F&SIY) with resources, tutoring, mentoring, & case management services. Included is our amazing patent-pending technology, eLockBox, a highly secured platform protection system for enabling authorized access to vital life records (VLR) (social sec cards, birth certs, photo IDs, medical records, & school transcripts). Without these documents, youth become disenfranchised & unable to succeed in basic living situations like accessing school, retaining employment, housing, & medical services.

LA, Inc. provides a hybrid (in-person & virtual) support system with our patent-pending software that matches foster youth (FY) with resources and services that improves their well-being. They are empowered with an educational, mental & social foundation, in the effort to ensure they graduate from school, and find careers and/or entrepreneurial opportunities that are meaningful to them. They’ll grow up to be independent & successful individuals that break the cycle of homelessness, incarceration, and dependence on the welfare system.

LA, Inc. will expand our reach & give quality services to 1,000 at risk and foster youth in LA, who are in danger of dropping out of school, being unemployed, becoming homeless and incarcerated. Our approach is through collaboration to connect, engage & interact with LA service providers. Some goals… high school students will graduate on time, be college and/or career prepared and receive social and emotional support for higher self-esteem.
