No one ages out alone.
Prime Village™ is a Georgia nonprofit building a clear path to work, housing and lifelong community for young adults who have been left to figure it out by themselves.
To empower foster care alumni and differently abled young adults with housing stability, career-ready skills and community support.
A nation where every young adult aging out of foster care or living with different abilities has a clear pathway to employment, stable housing and lifelong community.
Differently abled, by design.
We see neuro-divergence as being differently abled: a different way of thinking, learning and working. It is a strength to build on.
So we do not ask Villagers to fit a standard classroom. We shape the training, the pace and the workplace match around how each person works best.

One model for two communities.
Housing, workforce training and mental health support for both foster care alumni and differently abled adults.
Workforce development through certificates that lead to work in months. No college degree required.
We prove outcomes through partners before we build a campus.
