Embracing Boundless Possibilities


The Heartfelt Mission and Vision of NB2FS

In the vibrant heart of 2013, a spark of compassion flickered into existence within Tania Marie Reyes Holman. This was no ordinary spark—it was a fervent vision to help others, a vision that birthed No Boundaries Preparatory Academy (NBPA) and subsequently, No Boundaries Counseling and Consulting Firm (NBCCF). What started as a humble endeavor fueled by a deep-seated desire to transform lives has grown into No Boundaries to Foster Success (NB2FS), a nonprofit organization with a mission to uplift and empower individuals from all walks of life.


Tania’s story is one of dedication and resilience. From a young age, she felt a profound calling to guide others towards living life without limitations. Her journey began with NBPA, where she nurtured and educated children, planting seeds of confidence and self-worth. As her vision expanded, she founded NBCCF, offering a holistic suite of services that cater to the diverse needs of her community. Faith-based coaching and therapy, educational advocacy, consulting, tutoring, housing for the previously incarcerated, and mentoring for teens and women are just a few of the ways NBCCF fosters growth and healing.


Among Tania’s most cherished dreams is the creation of safe, loving homes for women and children who have faced incarceration, domestic violence, or time in the foster care system. 

She envisions small, supportive housing units where they can rebuild their lives surrounded by care and compassion. Through meticulously designed programs, NB2FS aims to reduce homelessness by teaching participants essential survival skills and aiding their self-sufficiency in society. Each person’s journey is unique, and Tania’s personalized approach ensures that everyone receives the support they need.


The heart of NB2FS beats with stories of transformation and hope. Consider Tania’s story, a young woman who emerged from an abusive relationship with her spirit broken but not defeated. Tania found solace and strength within the NB2FS community. She learned essential life skills, received therapy, and most importantly, discovered her self-worth. Today, Tania is a beacon of hope for others, sharing her story and mentoring those who are walking a similar path.


Tania’s journey has not been without its challenges. Despite completing her doctorate while in an abusive relationship, she has always held onto her faith and the support of her loved ones. Her parents’ unwavering belief in her potential, the wisdom gleaned from their experiences, and the encouragement from friends, her sorority sisters at Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated, and even strangers, have all played pivotal roles in her success. These influences have molded her into a resilient leader who embodies the very spirit of NB2FS.


Dr. Reyes’ vision extends far beyond immediate support; she is committed to fostering long-term stability and nurturing positive family structures. 

NB2FS actively collaborates with child welfare agencies to synchronize transition planning and eliminate homelessness among youth aging out of foster care. 

Programs like the updated Family Unification Program (FUP) and the Foster Youth to Independence (FYI) rental assistance program are vital in providing these young adults with the resources they need to thrive. Dr. Reyes envisions these programs flourishing in every county and state, ensuring that no young adult faces homelessness during their transition out of foster care.


The dedicated team at NB2FS amplifies the organization’s impact. With over 25 years of experience in Special Education and Adult Education, Dr. Christine Cunningham brings a wealth of knowledge and compassion. Heather Damitio, with her expertise in Public Service and Insurance, and Kia C. Bennett, with her extensive background in Customer Experience and Management, contribute their unique strengths to the NB2FS mission. Together, they form a powerhouse of dedication and passion, driving the organization towards achieving its goals.


NB2FS is more than an organization; it is a beacon of hope and a testament to the power of community and compassion. By supporting NB2FS, you become part of a movement that is transforming lives and creating a world where everyone can live without boundaries. Donations, volunteer efforts, and advocacy can help fulfill Tania’s vision of a society where love, support, and opportunity are available to all.


Join us on this journey of empowerment and transformation. Together, we can make a lasting difference, one life at a time.
