Our Mission

We aim to facilitate youth reintegration through empowerment and development. Our Juvenile Reentry program transitions youth from confinement to community life, starting post-sentencing and continuing through release. We focus on training, counseling, mentoring, and family reunification to ease societal reintegration, particularly for young adults. Our efforts are designed to significantly reduce recidivism.

Our Impact

We have successfully reintegrated numerous individuals into society and reunited families through our Annual Reunion Gathering. For eight years, we have funded these efforts independently, demonstrating our commitment to change.
