Mission Statement

Our mission is to empower children and youth to be the best version of themselves and a positive member of society through internal discovery, growth and action.

Description

Now more than ever children and youth need social and emotional skills and support. The effects of COVID have had profound effects on the social and emotional well being and overall mental health of people worldwide including our children and youth. Our program aims to help solve such issues while empowering children and youth to maximize their potential and equipping them with the skills and mindset they need to succeed in life. These skills are based on social and emotional learning and character development (SELCD), which we bring to communities that normally don’t have access to this type of education. Our program takes place through in-school or after-school programs.

By partnering with schools and nonprofit organizations we are able to reach people in their own home communities, while utilizing funds efficiently, which would normally go towards rent and other fixed operating costs.

Our educational sessions are engaging and interactive, which is why our participants are always looking forward to attending our sessions, and which can also be seen in the positive reviews we’ve received. We use a variety of instructional methods such as: group discussions, art, games, music, didactic instruction, writing, skill practice, book/story kinesthetic, role-playing, and service learning.
