It is our job to provide young people with those conditions. We believe that every young person wants to love and be loved. It is our job to love these young people, and to help them learn to love themselves and others. We believe in the power of belonging.

We are glad you are back . We will make sure every young person belongs in our community. No matter what. She drew a circle to shut me out. Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout. But love and I had the wit to win. We drew a circle that took her in (Edwin Markham) We accept young people for who they are. Right here. Right now. They do not have to change to be respected and loved and valued and be a member of our community. Behavior is not a condition of their worth as human beings. We believe that every young person wants to be in charge of their own life. To that end, we will give young people a voice in this program, and choices of how to best accomplish their goals. We are hungry to understand if our interventions are having the intended impact. We will be meticulous in our data entry, and ruthless in our hunt to understand the data and learn from it.
