Rappelling to stop Youth Violence.

Hi everyone! This is my third year participating in this thrilling event! I am so excited to be a part of it again! As a former pediatric nurse at a local children's hospital my heart beats for the young people of our city. My prayer is that with God's help I can do everything I can possibly do to reach the hurting and broken. Did you know that there are over 2 million youth arrested every year in the United States of America? Last night there were over 80,000 youth who spent the night in juvenile detention center in our nation and in n 2017 Miami Dade County had over 3,780 youth arrested. This is real problem that requires real solutions. Over the last 35 years our team has been working and ministering to incarcerated youth from all walks of life and we have realized that this work can not just remain behind walls but is essential that we work with youth as they transition back into the community. Over the last 3 years our team has brainstormed and met with with local government agencies, like Juvenile Services, the Department of Juvenile Justice to discuss innovative ways we can support youth turn the tide against crime and influence change in their life trajectories. In March of 2018 we launch our first Community Mentoring site in Liberty City and in the Fall we are planning to secure a location that can serve more youth living in high crime zip codes. With your help and support we believe that truthfully can be a part of the change and be a part of the healthy and caring influence our youth need in their communities! Thank you so much for helping me reach my personal goal of $2,000 which will help our team reach our $35,000 goal!! You can even chose to rappel alongside me! Are you ready?? Let's do this! :)
