Just Love and Kindness

To empower our area youths to unleash their unlimited potential by providing a safe, supportive environment where they can learn how to take charge of their lives, learn new, more productive behaviors pursue their dreams and live healthier and happier lives. Engaging the youth within our community with responsible, challenging actions to create a positive social change. Early engagement and intervening in our youth and creating agents of change that make positive decisions that affect all.

We are proud to announce that our 2020-2021 supporting partner will be T.A.P.D PRIDE Academy.

The P.R.I.D.E. (Personal Responsibility in Daily Efforts) Program is to provide a diversion program for economically and socially disadvantaged at-risk young adults in its jurisdiction to learn life, people, and behavioral coping skills so they are equipped to choose to be productive members of the community as they move into adulthood rather than emulate some of the poor life choices such as gang membership and criminal enterprise that they have as examples in the home. Since PRIDE's inception over throughout the last seven years, the juvenile arrest rate has dropped about 57 percent. This is a results oriented program that is truly worth all of our support, wouldn't you agree. We will be working with TTPD too, as we encourage more youth engagement and early intervention in Texarkana.
