As far as I can see it, empowerment means to actively pursue on your own your hopes, dreams, and goals. It is very close to being self-reliant. It means to stand on your own two feet, scan the horizon for your dreams, enlist the support of supports and resources, problem solve, and then to actual walk if not run to your destination. Empowerment brings personal growth, pride, and sense of accomplishment, which is priceless.
