Potential outcomes for at-risk youth include:
teenage pregnancy drug use criminal or antisocial behavior high school education or lower a marriage that ends in divorce lower IQ a shorter life span mental health problems a low socioeconomic status
|
|
We give support to at risk programs . We believe our efforts will help children become productive members of our community. |
|
At Risk Outcomes Can be Dramatically Reduced If:
children can be given a place where there are positive, caring people, with high expectations, to give them the opportunity to obtain good social skills and communication. children can communicate effectively, problem solve, and exhibit pro-social behavior, they gain a sense of self control and esteem and can look toward a future filled with HOPE.
Help us give children HOPE of a better future! |
