United Faith Outreach Inc. is a nonprofit agency that is designed to provide programs and activities for middle and high school youth in the Roanoke Valley. This program will form partnerships with local school districts, the juvenile court system, and other activist groups that desire to make a change in the community. Our goal at United Faith Outreach Inc. is to foster a commitment for young people that will help promote pro-social friendships, strong interpersonal skills, and reassert a sense of hope in the future. Only through personal relationships can a sense of individual responsibility be reestablished that will give the youths the commitment to follow through on their path to adulthood with a sense of pride and accomplishment.
Through repeated failures in the classroom and the development of destructive habits, at-risk young people have lost faith in the possibilities that await them if they are successful in putting their lives together. To accomplish this goal, young people must be in a caring, inclusive learning environment that promotes their best effort and reinforces personal respect. United Faith Outreach Inc. is a program that is in direct response to the growing number of young people that are either falling through the cracks at school or are already entangled with the juvenile court system.
The goal of these programs and activities are to identify youths who are going to have a turbulent transition to adulthood and to offer a positive support system to avoid the pitfalls that can derail their lives. The focus is slightly different at each level but the goal remains the same: empower the youth to make positive decisions in his/her life.
During these community-sponsored events the youth will be a part of the planning for all the activities and that is one of the many ways that will help strengthen the relationships between the youth and the adults. That will help to improve the youth's confidence and optimism. Overtime, United Faith Outreach Inc. will create a positive learning environment that will be an invaluable resource for them, aspiring mentors and the community at large.
