Youth Programs - Project Success was implemented in August 1999 and works with adjudicated youth incarcerated at the Woodland Hills youth Development Center (WHYDC), Nashville Transition Center (NTC), and Davidson County Juvenile Detention Center. Both WHYDC and NTC are under the guidance of the Tennessee Department of children's Services. Through a Survival Skills for Youth model, this program offers extensive training and practice in life skills, conflict resolution, job readiness, mentoring and role modeling, and manhood/womanhood development. The program's Career Development component provides an extensive look into the students' prior work history, interest and current job duties in the institution, and helps them to better develop a career path.The Legacy Program, the newest component of our youth program, works with adjudicated youth deemed "serious and habitual juvenile offenders." The agency partners with Family Empowerment Services to provide prevention and strategic intervention services for program participants, and the Hope Institute for Youth Enhancement provides mentoring services for the program. The Legacy program's goal is "to empower adjudicated youth with a sense of hope and self-responsibility, enabling them to shape their own positive destiny."
