POWER IN CHANGE

Mission

Our mission is to confront the impact of distance-learning, reducing shame in general, providing tools to combat depression and self destructive behavior for themselves and peers; and offer a safe environment which empowers  families to engage in their children’s healthy development

Our Objective

Reach and teach young people, within South Sacramento neighborhoods, after school and evening to improve mental wellness, gain work readiness tools, and obtain access to resources.

Target

We are looking for participants between the age of 14 to 24 years old in the Sacramento area that are: (1) Justice involved, (2) Exposed to Violence, (3) Academic Under-performers, (4) Teen Parents, and (5)  Mental and Behavioral Health Challenges

Outcome

Develop a cohesive and healthy sense of self and future orientation and the wake of trauma for the youth we are reaching. Students will recognize the  emotional, social and situational factors that lead to risk-taking and develop health promoting behaviors.
