Empowerment enhances the ability of individuals or organizations to make choices and transform those choices into positive outcomes. Empowered people have recognized their own value and strength and their capacity to handle life's problems. In turn they are better able to influence the course of their lives. With information and support, most people can find within themselves the power to direct their lives and reach their dreams.

More on Support
I used to think "support" meant having plenty of people I could call and complain to. I had lots of that and I spent a lot of hours on the phone telling my tales of woe. Gradually I began to notice that my life was not getting better. Thanks to mentors I've had along the way, I've learned that talking about problems only gives a few minutes of relief. For my life to change, I have to change and part of that change is getting support that encourages me to make the changes necessary to improve my life.
