About
More Than Words is a nonprofit social enterprise that empowers youth who are in the foster care system, court involved, homeless, or out of school to take charge of their lives by taking charge of a business. Youth at MTW earn a job working approximately 20 hours each week running every aspect of our $3.75M bookselling business, learning critical hard and soft job skills. All of our young people simultaneously hold an equally important “You Job” – personal transition planning and case management focused on ensuring they have all the necessary life essentials in place to move on to meaningful jobs and education. Graduates continue to receive support from Career Services Managers toward higher education, door-opening credentials, or growth-focused pathway employment for two years. More Than Words (MTW) believes that when system-involved youth are challenged with authentic and increasing responsibilities in a business setting, and are given high expectations and a culture of support, they can and will address personal barriers to success, create concrete action plans for their lives, and become contributing members of society.
