Build Community to Change a Community!

We Focus on youth coping with today’s intense challenges, exploitation, bullying, abuse, neglect and help them find a healthy journey to become role models and future leaders by learning life long skills.
                                       
Disadvantaged, physically and emotionally wounded youth are hurting and feel alone due to poor choices of their own or often, more likely, harm done to them. 

In addition, even youth "who have everything" are feeling isolated, and alone with rise in divorce, technology use, less face to face interactions and reduced extended family/ trusted community. 
​                                 Hope Replaces Silent Suffering

 We give youth a place to learn new skills, create a community where they can build confidence, practice safe communication, process their hurt, learn how to put words to their emotions and build trust.
