They know firsthand what the teens they befriend are coping with. These outreach workers are creating lasting and meaningful relationships with youth who have few positive influences otherwise. They've given us an incredible opportunity to prove that faith-based, mentoring relationships will turn kids' lives around. Each Youth Outreach Worker develops a youth program through his or her church that offers creative, safe activities. It's the perfect atmosphere for mentor and positive peer relationships to blossom.
Teens have a place to focus their values, faith, and purpose in life.
Davelle Bridge's mission is part of the Holly Park Community Church outreach to its neighborhood. His strategy includes nurturing mentor-relationships with young men, taking students to a play or movie and inviting them to attend the church youth group he leads on Saturdays. George is also considering matters of faith and his school attendance has improved.
