Axios Youth Community

Mission Statement

Axios Youth Community exists to restore hope, confidence, and security through individualized treatment interventions for youth and young adults in need.

Ethos is a Greek word used to describe the guiding beliefs or ideals that characterize a group, community, nation, or ideology. The Axios Ethos is therefore summed up by the following statement:

May all our actions promote the creation of space and time for the youth in our care, so that they may feel safe enough to begin the terrifying process of healing from the injustices in their pasts. We create space by embracing and enjoying the person’s individuality, and by constructing the environment at Axios in a way that promotes individualism and character growth. We create time by fiercely advocating for all disadvantaged people, but especially for the youth in our care with a fundamental position that refuses to believe anyone is ever beyond help, healing, and full restoration.
