Resiliency - Youth Bouncing Back

Being a teenager has always been a challenging time of life, however add to that loosing everything you own 3 years ago and moving from one location to another and waiting daily for your trailer to be taken away and the everyday challenges of loss of loved ones and accidents and parents unemployment and...

The solution, RESILIENCY WORKSHOPS!   

For two days, 19 youth from three Bay St. Louis High Schools gathered together with a devoted heart to be able to help them and help others.  

YES I CAN became the theme of the workshops, as the youth touched tender issues in their lives post Katrina, many of them realized that they CAN and WILL make a difference.

Through art, music, role playing and JUST PLAIN FUN, the youth addressed the challenges they have faced in the past few years and came out SMILING.  

Follow up training will be held in the next few months, with many of them saying “I learned so much-Thank You!”
