Helping young people rebuild their sense of self and move forward.
The Christiana Legacy Foundation
Helping young people build stronger futures.
Trauma-informed support, mentoring, coaching and practical life skills for young people navigating the transition into adulthood.
Our Belief
Early intervention can change the course of a life.
The Christiana Legacy Foundation was born from lived experience. We exist to walk alongside young people — those leaving care, those navigating youth justice, and those on probation — at the moments that matter most. Our approach is rooted in empathy, trauma-informed practice, and a belief that every young person deserves someone genuinely in their corner.
Leaving Care
Helping young people develop the confidence and practical skills needed for independent adulthood.
Youth Justice
Supporting positive change through rehabilitation, mentoring and coaching.
Probation
Helping young adults build stability, confidence and direction.
