JMCC Life Skills
Our Transition to Adulthood program helps at-risk youth aged 13-19 graduate from high school, assists them in furthering their education through secondary education or vocational training, supports the development of critical life skills, and continues to provide them with food, basic necessities, and clothing as needed. Fostered and adopted teens, along with their youth siblings, are encouraged to attend.
