Meet some of our students

l think the most important lesson I’ve learned at Horizons for Youth is that family isn’t just blood. It’s the support around us.

A couple things I’m proud to have accomplished, is that I’m able to push through challenges. I’ve gotten better over the years.

Horizons for Youth has opened a whole new world for me. They set you up to succeed, and if it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t be here today.

Knowing the importance of having a genuine mentor, who is really invested in the program and in me as a student, is why I am a mentor today.

Words from our community

The best thing about Horizons for Youth is that it provides students and families with what they need to be the best version of themselves.

Tiffany

Program Parent

Seeing Bryce grow up the last six years has profoundly changed my outlook. I am grateful to be a part of his life and to witness the tangible changes as he grows up and finds his place in the world.

Peter

Big Sib Mentor

We work hard to have a diverse racial, religious, and socioeconomic population. Horizons for Youth heard that and responded to that in a very positive way.

Mary Ellen

Former Principal of Francis Xavier Warde School

Horizons for Youth has really been able to supplement the resources our students need that our schools cannot provide on their own.
