YOUTH RISING

GRIT

We believe that early intervention and prevention can make a huge difference in a vulnerable person’s life. 

Our GRIT services have grown to meet the needs of the youth we serve and include restorative and transformative practices for youth who are at-risk or already justice involved and services for youth and young adults experiencing academic failure.

The GRIT program aims to engage and support young adults struggling in a nonjudgmental and supportive setting.

GRIT helps young people at risk of dropping out of school find their way back into completing their education.

In psychology, grit is a positive, non-cognitive trait based on an individual's perseverance of effort combined with the passion for a particular long-term goal or end state (a powerful motivation to achieve an objective). This perseverance of effort promotes the overcoming of obstacles or challenges that lie on the path to accomplishment and serves as a driving force in achievement realization.

real change happens here.
