It made the news and changed lives—until COVID shut it down.Since then, we’ve restructured into a multi-state movement with local outreach programs in Florida, South Carolina, and now West Virginia.Where We’re HeadedWe’re launching a new teen center in Charleston, WV—built on the same proven model.
