LIFE SKILLS CENTER
Youth justice is one of the biggest civil rights issues of our time. Teens and young adults who are involved in the juvenile or adult criminal justice systems are disproportionately identified as having special needs in school and are disproportionately low-income, black and Hispanic. Many have endured mental or physical hardships and spent time in foster care – circumstances we know place them at increased risk for disconnection.
If I had to give a little background about myself I would say surviving the streets of Detroit, and prison was tough but I'm determined to let my light shine.
Growing up in a single parent home it was hard watching my mom work two jobs, complete her education all well raising us. I turned to the streets to find things to do almost cost me my life.
