Group Mentorship Sessions
Young people meet in small groups with a mentor who listens, asks real questions, and makes space for honest conversation. Peer support plays a big role — it gives youth a chance to hear different perspectives and build connections that feel real. These sessions aren’t lectures or therapy; they’re a chance to be seen, heard, and challenged in a good way. Trust grows when people feel safe to speak up. If that sounds like what someone you know needs, invite them in.
Violence Risk Assessment
Using proven tools and observations, we identify behavioral and environmental risk factors among youth. With this insight, we craft personalized support plans that address underlying needs and help guide participants toward more positive, goal-oriented futures.
Peer Support Facilitation
We lead structured peer groups where youth can talk openly about life challenges, stressors, and achievements. These sessions strengthen social bonds and help participants gain confidence, accountability, and a sense of shared purpose within a safe, guided setting.
Life Skills Training
From time management to emotional regulation, our training covers key life competencies that youth need to thrive. These sessions prepare them for everyday challenges and long-term goals, helping them grow into responsible, capable adults.
Healing Circles
In these trauma-informed group settings, youth are invited to express emotions, reflect on personal experiences, and support one another in a space of trust. Healing Circles promote emotional restoration and deepen the sense of community among participants.
