This week, Miriam Cobb discusses how Empty Frames Initiative helps young adults transition out of the foster care system into thriving adults.\nMiriam Cobb is founder and director of Empty Frames Initiative, a non-profit dedicated to empowering orphaned and vulnerable youth as they transition out\nof state care.\nEmpty Frames Initiative is inspired and driven by the heart of the Father. We believe everyone is created with a purpose. EFI looks to empower orphaned\nand vulnerable youth as they transition out of state care by providing training in life skills, counseling, community, and access to the Gospel. Within\nthis role, Miriam was excited to be a part of the creation of their curriculum titled, "Storytelling Through Photography".\nThis program combines art therapy techniques, documentary photography, and storytelling concepts to encourage participants to share their stories from\ntheir perspectives. The result of our first pilot session is The Story of Foster Care, Volume 1 that was made into a gallery and book.\nPurchase links:\nAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/Story-Foster-Care-Miriam-Cobb/dp/1953348734\nBarnes and Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-story-of-foster-care-empty-framesinitiative/1137381036\nConnect with Miriam at the following links:\nwww.fillingemptyframes.org\nInstagram: Empty Frames Initiative https://www.instagram.com/emptyframesinitiative/\nFacebook: Empty Frames Initiative https://www.facebook.com/EmptyFramesInitiative/\nThe Spirit of Creativity: Inspirational Poems for the Creative at Heart is available in eBook, Audiobook and Paperback formats:\nhttps://books2read.com/TheSpiritOfCreativity\nSupport this podcast with a monthly donation:\nhttps://anchorlfm/inspirational-journeys/support\nor you can give a one-time donation via PayPal at:\nhttps://paypal.me/annHarrisonBarnes?locale.x=en_US
