Residential Support
Our Stewardship program is dedicated to meeting the unique needs of communities through housing revitalization and stabilization. The local Steward Leadership starts with intake and triage of assistance requests through thoughtfully assessing and prioritizing by scale and priority, we then work to deploy our Stewards to directly address these needs. The goal is to ensure home and property longevity so the resident can stay for years to come.
Mentorship plays a central role in our approach, focusing on training and developing individuals new to skilled trades within each community's capabilities.

Mentorship
Mentorship plays a central role in the approach of The Forgotten Stewardship, focused on training and developing individuals new to or interested in the skilled trades within each community's capabilities.
The Steward leaders within each community are uniquely positioned to engage with these individuals because they are both in the skilled trades themselves and residence of the communities they are serving. The Stewards are ready and eager to create a generational change through mentorship of these new entrants into the trades.
