Mission Statement

The P.R.Y.D.E. Mentoring Academy, like other programs, is realistic in our goals, we understand that we cannot save all At-Risk youths; we can only try to save the ones that are drawn to our programs because what we are offering resonates within their hearts, just as other unique programs have At-Risk youths drawn to them because of what they are offering. We partnered with like-minded organizations and programs to create a unique combined program that offers Mentoring and Career Goals in conjunction with Music, Performing Arts, Athletics, Sports, Culinary, Healthcare Training and a junior Military program under one umbrella, "P.R.Y.D.E.". Though this is our Mission Statement, it is not our Mission, it is our Responsibility.
