Make a Difference

We will provide free counseling services, wellness programming and spiritual care to children ages 5-19 years old and their family members that are survivors of traumatic events in the cities of South DeKalb. The rise in violent crime in this country is alarming and having devastating effects on the communities represented. UTAWP will provide mental health and wellness services to this underserved population and create micro business opportunities for the youth and their families to reinvest in their communities. The effectiveness of the program will be measured by community participation and the measurement of Adverse Childhood Experiences scores among youth in the community served.
