There’s a shift happening—and The B.O.G.A.N. Foundation is at the center of it.With housing policy changes on the horizon and rising pressure on families to become “self-sufficient” within just two years, we’re asking one simple question:Who’s helping them get ready?That’s exactly what B.O.G.A.N. is built to do.This month, we officially launched our pilot program, offering families and veterans in Fort Worth the tools, structure, and support to move from surviving to building.What’s Different About B.O.G.A.N.? We’re not another drop-in program. We’re not another short-term solution.We walk families through:<ul><li>Weekly coaching + mentorship </li><li>Mindset + planning work </li><li>Parenting, time management, and life skills </li><li>Youth connection and accountability </li><li>Clear, achievable personal goals</li></ul>And it’s working.Our first pilot cohort completed the program with 100% retention and measurable wins—including job interviews, stronger routines, and renewed confidence in their ability to build.Why Now?Proposed federal changes could limit housing vouchers to just two years. That’s not a long time to stabilize your life—especially if no one ever taught you how.We’re not waiting to react. We’re preparing families now, while they still have time.What’s Next for B.O.G.A.N.?<ul><li>We’re expanding our community outreach with housing partners. </li><li>We’re opening enrollment for our next round. </li><li>We’re actively seeking aligned funders and collaborators. </li><li>We’re documenting every lesson, every success, and every breakthrough—because this is just the beginning.</li></ul>Want to get involved? If you’re a service provider, caseworker, mentor, funder, or just someone who believes in the power of structure + strategy, we want to hear from you.<a data-mce-href="mailto:hello@boganfoundation.org" href="mailto:hello@boganfoundation.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hello@boganfoundation.org</a> Fort Worth, TX<blockquote> We don’t wait for change—we build it.</blockquote>

B.O.G.A.N. Launches Pilot Program to Help Fort Worth Families Build Long-Term Stability

Getting the keys should feel like the finish line— But for many families, it’s just the start of a new kind of survival.Housing placement programs work hard to get families indoors, and we’re grateful for the role they play. But once the paperwork is signed and the move-in is done, there’s still life to manage. Bills. Kids. Job searches. Emotional weight. That’s where we step in.At The B.O.G.A.N. Foundation, we’ve seen how fast things can unravel after placement—not because the programs failed, but because stability takes more than a set of keys.We met a mom who got housing on Monday, but by Friday, daycare fell through and her employer threatened her hours. We saw a dad move into a unit and feel paralyzed by the pressure of "figuring it out" with no plan, no support, and no one checking in.These families weren’t ungrateful. They weren’t lazy. They were overwhelmed, under-supported, and afraid to speak up.That’s not a flaw in the family or in the program—it’s just a gap. And B.O.G.A.N. was created to fill that gap with strategy, structure, and support.Through our 5-pillar model, we walk with families after placement—helping them build routines, income, confidence, and real-life systems. We don’t replace housing support. We extend it. And the result is different: families aren’t just housed. They’re growing.The day the lease gets signed shouldn’t be the end of the support. It should be the beginning of a new season. A better one. A sustainable one. We’re here to walk them into that.Want to help us build long-term stability for families who’ve already made it through the hardest part?<a title="Support the Mission with a Donation" href="https://givebutter.com/Boganfoundation" data-mce-href="https://givebutter.com/Boganfoundation">Support the Mission with a Donation</a><a href="https://bogan.durablesites.com/" data-mce-href="https://bogan.durablesites.com/">Learn More About Our 5-Pillar Model</a><a href="https://www.canva.com/design/DAGtFPa1n7I/i1633ktWg1Nd0hZNSGACMQ/view?utm_content=DAGtFPa1n7I&amp;utm_campaign=designshare&amp;utm_medium=link2&amp;utm_source=uniquelinks&amp;utlId=hdfbf03d739" data-mce-href="https://www.canva.com/design/DAGtFPa1n7I/i1633ktWg1Nd0hZNSGACMQ/view?utm_content=DAGtFPa1n7I&amp;utm_campaign=designshare&amp;utm_medium=link2&amp;utm_source=uniquelinks&amp;utlId=hdfbf03d739">Download Our Investor Kit</a>
