Due to concerns with the COVID-19 and in order to ensure the safety of our youth, staff, and supporters, we’re temporarily canceling all volunteer opportunities and community tours for the next several weeks.
We are however, still in need of meals for our youth so if you would like to provide a dinner or lunch for our youth, reach out to us at (812)479-7535!
We appreciate you interest in serving our kids and we’re sorry for any inconvenience. We look forward to inviting you back to campus in the future!

Community volunteers help us enhance our programs by serving in a variety of different ways. We have many opportunities for groups and individuals to play an important role in bettering the lives of young people in our community. Have an idea? Let us know! Contact us, get plugged in, and be a part of our mission to transform troubled teens into productive adults.
