Our emphasis on youth and their families is demonstrated with shelters for runaway, homeless
and at-risk teens as well as foster care group homes. We offer counseling to students and families (free of charge) from any middle or
high school within Sarasota and DeSoto Counties. We have one Triad Alternative School as well as programs for homeless and truant teens. |
