What Is Vantage?

Vantage exists to show teens "with temporary sacrifice comes a promising future." Vantage will empower teens to live a life without regrets and it will help free them to achieve their personal hopes and dreams. Our goal is to ultimately enhance self-esteem by teaching teens about healthy relationships, sex, dating, and developing good decision making skills.

The Pure Sex program is a candid and uncensored four-week program designed to inform teens ages 12-19 how their decisions regarding sex will effect their futures. We will be talking in-depth about STD/STI's, teen pregnancy, porn, and identity.

Who Is Vantage?

Elizabeth is passionate about people, spending time with those close to her, laughing, and living life to its fullest. She is carefree, outgoing, excited about life, and brings energy into the lives she's surrounded by. Elizabeth married her best friend, Jason, in August of 2006. Besides Otis, their 112 lb. chocolate lab, Jason and Elizabeth are in the process of adopting their "next" child through Riverside County. His name is Weiland and he is amazing! In Elizabeth's free time, she enjoys coaching high school girl's volleyball, being a youth leader at her church, spending time with Jason and Weiland, coffee dates with friends, and traveling.

Since graduating with a degree in Youth Ministry from Hope International University in the winter of 2004 she has pursued figuring out how she would be most effective with teens and helping them see their worth. Following speaking to around 2,000 teens in various public high schools in the Coachella valley, she discovered the need to talk about the difficult and sometimes awkward topic of sex and all that it entails. To confirm this discovery, Elizabeth received a package of thank you's from a local health class expressing how they wish they would have known about all of the consequences that come from having sex outside of one monogamous lifetime partner.

Consistently throughout every thank you card, the teens continued to express how they would have waited to give away such a special gift, their virginity, if they would have known. After that eye-opening discovery, Elizabeth decided to launch Vantage.
