Our SPARK mentoring programs are proven to help teens, pre-teens and children access greater academic success, enjoy a healthier state of mind, and find a deeper connection with the world through vital social and emotional skills. All done through relatable, fun, and highly interactive lessons. 

As a non-profit organization, part of our early work in the community was spent in the juvenile justice system, helping local youth directly. The first SPARK curriculum was designed in response to this experience. Since then, our extensive programatic research has earned us the CASEL seal of approval. Our prorgams have been proven to increase mental health, resilience and impluse control. Addtionally, our programs build critical life skills such as communication, problem-solving, and decision-making. These skills effectively reduce risk around high-school drop-out, drug use, bullying, suicide, depression and anxiety.

We quickly saw that this work was more than just preventive. It also helped children and youth embrace their full potential, engage more fully in healthy relationships and at school, and make better choices.
