Our Mission
Connecting Youth Through Effective Communication
Young people today face great challenges, such as the terrifying regularity of school shootings, mental health struggles, bullying, violence, drug overdoses, and the erosion of the family unit as a safe and supportive environment for growth. We cannot control some of these influences, but we can provide young adults with the tools to make healthy, powerful choices; choices that reflect their true purpose in life.
Youth on Purpose is dedicated to equipping young individuals with the skills of free, fearless communication. Our programs empower youth to strengthen their relationships with family, friends, and the community.
We also offer specialized communication training for parents and caregivers, focusing on enhancing family bonds through revitalized communication channels, mentoring, and more.
Join us in creating a supportive environment where youth can thrive and connect meaningfully.
Our Values
"Once you are committed to living in peace, harmony, love, and innocence, attaining your vision of your best life will be inevitable."
