Our Founder & President
Richard J. Smith Jr.
My love for helping trouble youth is because I was once one of them. I can recall being 8 years old when mother gave my two younger siblings & I to my grandmother to raise which impacted me emotionally. I can also remember looking out of the window waiting for my late father to pick up to spend time with me after he said he would & him never showing up. I began to look for love in the streets & later in life, I ended up going to prison. I’ve made it my mission to prevent youth from making the same mistakes that I have by sharing my story redemption and the love of Christ. A lot of the kids & I have more than just a troubled past in common, some of them are also products of teen pregnancy just like me. My motto to them for a fresh start is to change their people, place’s & things.
Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new.
2 Corinthians 5:17
