BHRS has partnered with four community-based efforts to support their youth leadership development efforts. The partnerships include the (1) West Modesto King Kennedy Community Collaborative and Project Uplift Mentorship Program, (2) The Bridge and Sierra Vista, (3) Hughson Family Resource Center, (3) and the Center for Human Services and Patterson School District.
LRP is a school-and/or community-based program for youth ages 14-19 that enhances internal strengths and resiliency, prevents involvement with substance abuse and violence, and helps youth avoid school failure and involvement with juvenile justice. Specific activities include resiliency groups, adventure and outdoor activities, community service opportunities, conflict resolution, social skills training and peer mentoring. Individuals who are the focus of this program will be involved in its development. When fully implemented, the LRP programs will provide services to over 400 youth.
