Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide early intervention & prevention services for at risk youth & young adults to reduce teenage pregnancy, domestic violence, homelessness, incarceration and/or any grief due to a loss.
Description
Our vision is to inspire youth & young adults (13-25yrs of age) to achieve successful careers or entrepreneurship by empowering them with educational and vocational resources and life-skills to become self sufficient adults. The goal is to show young adults they do not have to succumb to the negative behaviors, thoughts, and excuses that they may come in contact with in society on a daily basis. We will positively impact young adults by providing education and resources, and build their self- esteem and character, which will be conducted by volunteers from various professions and backgrounds. O.N.F.I.Y.A focuses on six pillars- Faith, Integrity, Relationships, Trust, Confidence, and Respect. Therefore within six months, we will strive to help the young adults mature, increase their social values, and in turn, graduate from the program. Every year the participants will have the opportunity to express their talents and abilities in the areas of Arts, Sports, Music, and Dance through a talent showcase.
