My Stride is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) leadership organization dedicated to uplifting young people ages 14 to 25 and supporting single parents who are ready to build a stronger future. We provide a safe, encouraging space where mentorship, personal growth, and community connections come together to inspire lasting change.
Our programs focus on mental and physical wellness, fitness, and practical leadership skills shaped by military values. As a veteran‑founded organization, we understand the power of resilience, discipline, and purpose—and we pass those strengths on to every participant. We help individuals build confidence, form healthy relationships, and discover their voice as leaders in their families and communities.
As we grow, My Stride is preparing to expand its mission in 2026 to include Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF). This future initiative will allow us to serve veterans and their families with the same compassion, structure, and empowerment that guide all our programs.
At My Stride, we believe that when individuals are supported, communities are transformed. We’re here to walk alongside every person who is ready to take their next stride toward a brighter future.
