$83KSky's the limit fund coaching servicein fy2024, stlf provided $83,030 in coaching support to 58 adolescents and young adults and their families.each family that receives financial assistance from sky's the limit fund is also eligible to apply for our coaching service free of charge. Stlf provides 12-15 hours of coaching support to adolescents and young adults and their family members as the wilderness therapy or therapeutic nature based program participant transitions from their program back into their home and social environment. This service is led by master-level therapists who have years of experience in wilderness therapy, transitional support care, and traditional therapeutic care with youth and their families.young adults may participate in stlf's coaching service and live in their parent's home or in an independent living environment. Stlf provides coaching for young adults and also offers support to their families.since it was established in 2016, the stlf coaching service has served more than 350 adolescents and young adults along with their families.after completing their wilderness therapy or nature-based therapeutic program, many adolescents and young adults are transitioning home rather than attending a long-term transitional program such as a residential treatment center or therapeutic boarding school. Sky's the limit fund's coaching service facilitates healthier family dynamics by reinforcing and building on the skills acquired during the nature-based therapeutic process. Providing transitional support after a child completes their program is essential for sustaining long-term growth and success.stlf conducts a 3-month survey with each family that participates in our family coaching service. The data below reflects the survey results received from families may 2021 - december 2023- 91% of families received quality "in the moment" support from their stlf family coach- 84% of families expressed their needs were fully met after completing their 12 -week coaching program.- 98% of families are likely to recommend stlf's family coaching service

$10KSky's the limit fund welcomes 5 new program partners in fy2024.our program partners support our fundraising efforts by soliciting donations from their alumni families. 91% of our revenue is generated by individual donors. Sky's the limit fund leadership and board of directors worked diligently throughout the year to research and vet new potential program partners that offer a 50% or more nature component to their therapeutic process, and adhere to our high standards.as fy24 came to a close, sky's the limit fund was proud to partner with 13 exceptional programs across the united states, spanning from hawaii to maine. Each of these partnerships was carefully selected through a rigorous vetting and interview process to ensure the programs align with our mission and uphold the highest standards of care. Our partners are not only required to maintain a high level of accountability, transparency, and safety but also to offer comprehensive family support services, as we believe family involvement is critical to long-term success. Additionally, each program is expected to consistently track and measure outcomes to ensure effectiveness and continuous improvement. By maintaining these high standards, we can confidently support the programs that create meaningful and lasting change for youth and families in need. Stlf is committed to partnering with wilderness therapy and therapeutic nature-based programs that are licensed, accredited and share in best practices.
