Greater Heights Youth Program
The Greater Heights Youth Program (GH) is our youth development program that aims to help youth (ages 13-24):
- Hold decision-making and advisory positions in their school and community
- Manage their conflicts non-violently
- Master their reading grade requirements
- Meet or surpass the standards for academic and job performance
- Be physically fit, arts-oriented, and nutritionally responsible
- Be active members of their family
- Be active in their communities
- Mentor their peers or younger individuals
We seek to develop strong, independent, articulate youth who legitimately represent and are accountable to their families and communities. The youth develop a greater sense of self, and serve as resources to their peers and communities.
