Pair each family with a mentor who will serve as a supportive role model, offering guidance, encouragement, and practical assistance as they navigate the challenges of rebuilding their lives.
After-School Work-Study Program:

Partnering with a local recreation center children will be able to participate in various sports and other recreational activities and groups that will allow them to have a time of exercise, competitive play and group participation.
Our program not only offers a safe refuge from abuse but also equips families with the tools they need to heal from trauma, rebuild their confidence, and achieve their full potential.
