Mission

Deconstruct trauma’s influence through selfless service and giving that promotes healthy constructs—from hopeless to hope-focused. And share the teachings of Christ through itinerant ministry, reaching people from all walks of life and guiding them toward a closer relationship with God.

VISION

Connect people to resources and healthy choices to alter the influence, disrupt the path of trauma, and deconstruct its deadly lies and false constructs by serving the community, fostering spiritual growth, and promoting love, compassion, and inclusivity. T

Goals

Raise awareness and promote advocacy against child exploitation and abuse. And provide a safe place for the survivors to heal and move from victims to victors.

Connect U.S. service Veterans to resources.

Donate resources and connect homeless and working homeless individuals and families to instigate transformative conversations and positive actions for community improvement.

Develop healthy partnerships for positive change in our community.

God's loyal love couldn’t have run out, His merciful love couldn’t have dried up. They’re created new every morning … (Lamentations 3:19:21) Every day is a new opportunity so give no room to regret, despair, and hopelessness. Life is choice driven … Choose Life=Choose Right! Start the conversation with hope!

  • Provide resources, clothes, food, and connections within the community that have resulted in short- and long-term housing.

  • Collect and donate school supplies and related material, uniforms, undergarments and personal hygiene items, resources, and healthy food to school-age children in need.

  • Provide Christ-centered counseling, coaching, hope, and shelter to hurting, abandoned, post-trafficked, and/or abused school-age girls (6-18 years old). We provide a safe place for our trauma survivors to break the cycle of abuse and work through the negative to realize their true identity as the beloved of God, created in HIS Image and likeness.

  • Christ-centered counseling and coaching. We partner with you to give birth to your dreams, dethrone, dismantle, destroy trauma’s grip to give room for you to breathe again.

Our story

In 1997, while serving this great Nation in the military, the Founder and her family’s hearts overflowed with compassion for working men and women sleeping in their cars with their families because they lacked the resources, connections, and knowledge to do better. Soldiers were in line for food stamps, utility assistance, and second jobs. Children were going to school without undergarments and hungry. Children as young as 6 were homeless, battered, and commodity for predators. They committed their hearts, hands, and resources to help make a difference—each one, reach one, to save one.

The family joined with a local ministry to meet the needs, walk the streets, become a conduit for love from Jesus to touch lives, provide comfort and solace, distribute Jesus-centered information, pray for everyone encountered, provide short-term housing, and become the connection point to hope, acceptance, and love. Twenty-plus years later, in 2018, this non-profit, Choice Driven Ministry, was formerly birthed, and a new family of like-minded selfless givers and servants joined the effort to make lasting change in our community.

Our greatest hope is that we can reach those who feel hopeless, hungry, impoverished, or need help transitioning from one stage of their life to the next through community and global partnerships. We are a conduit for resources that clothe and feed the needy, connect people with resources, educate, coach, and become tangible expressions of acknowledgment and love to homeless individuals, working homeless families, and abused or post-trafficked youth. We are community connectors that connect resources with the people that need it most.

Hunger, depression, hopelessness, poverty, and insufficiency lead to negative behavior, immoral actions, and nonproductive thoughts. Unless this cycle is injected with something good, healthy, and learnable education filled with hope, the conditions remain the same, homelessness and despair increase, and criminal activity is not abated. This Ministry brings hope, connections with resources, answers, and transformational conversations that eventually change the thought pattern and the community's identity. We aspire to have transformative conversations to convert mindsets that transform lives from hopeless to hope-filled.
