Mission and Program Overview
Mission
Our mission is to conduct life skills and leadership workshops to identified youth that may have a difficult and turbulent transition into adulthood. We provide youth life skills and mentorship programs. The youth are placed in an environment designed to promote a positive relationship between the youth and professional mentor. This environment will allow the youth to obtain life-long skills sets which reinforce personal responsibility while teaching life skills and goal setting. The focus will be to empower youth to make positive changes in their lives in order to enhance their opportunities of success in society. In 2018, we granted 30 scholarships to high school graduates to assist them with higher education expenses at trade schools and colleges.
