Mission Statement

Description

We partner with parents/guardians, volunteers and others in the community and hold ourselves accountable for each youth in our program achieving:

  • Higher Aspirations, greater confidence and better relationships
  • Avoidance of risky behaviors
  • Educational success

Our Mentoring Works

  • Able to get along better with their families
  • 46% less likely to begin using illegal drugs
  • 27% less likely to begin using alcohol
  • 52% less likely to skip school
