More than a platform.

Adelphi was created to address the gap many care-experienced young people face when navigating independence.

While systems provide structure, they do not always provide the practical guidance, opportunities or connections needed to build stability and confidence.

Founded by Bethaney Dixon, Adelphi combines lived experience with professional insight to develop initiatives, partnerships and resources that strengthen independence and opportunity.

Because adulting shouldn’t mean doing it alone.

The Adelphi Ecosystem

Through partnerships, initiatives, digital tools and training, Adelphi works to bridge the gap between systems and real-life independence.

“I’ve used the Adelphi Digital Platorm with young people I mentor and it’s been incredibly valuable. The content is clear, relatable and genuinely helpful for young people navigating independence.”
