Ours, as a 501c3 Public Charity. OUR VISION – 9-6-2013The Homelessness footprint has changed immensely and tragically. In today’s world there is an exponential ease of access to prescription pills, hard-core street drugs, alcohol, casual sex, adult and child prostitution and technology. These lifestyle choices have individuals and families with children living in motels all over our country as an alternative to living in a home or on the streets. People living these types of chosen lifestyles find it easier to shun responsibility and society’s rules by seeking assistance on a daily basis from numerous resources rather than work or participate in society.Straight Ahead Outreach-Taking Back Your Life Inc (STA) Vision is preventing homelessness and Social/Family Decay starting with children first, from newborns to high school ages primarily. STA sees the need to prevent children of today from becoming involved in drug and or alcohol abuse, violent crime, prostitution and abusing the system of assistance. STA strives to help people build self-esteem, learn to manage anger, teaching proper respect and conflict resolution in a day-to-day style of normal everyday life in a family/faith-based environment. The Goal is preventing future homelessness and Family/Social Decay with the end result being a stronger future community. Through our primary focus of children first, where memories are made, clothing and bedding are clean and bellies are full and children are children, along with partners in the community, STA accomplishes our Mission and Vision.Purpose Clause: Straight Ahead Outreach (Taking Back Your Life) Inc. is organized exclusively for charitable purposes providing relief to the poor, underprivileged, distressed and depressed with a primary focus on Pre-Teen Children and the homeless under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, or corresponding section of any future federal tax code.www.mobilecrisis.org
