Our Purpose
To develop and initiate programs to assist the youth in our society in three principal areas: leadership development, career awareness, and mentoring. With emphasis on self-motivation, discipline, responsibility, common sense, and self-respect. We hope to help young adults, particularly those considered at risk, to develop a positive self-concept, while achieving in academic and job training skills.
