Changing lives for troubled teens
Slipstream District Topic, July 31 2025
Growing up in an underserved neighborhood is like walking a tightrope. No matter how hard you try, trouble always feels just a step away. But, sometimes all it takes to find a different path is for someone to see the good in you—especially when you can’t see it yourself. That’s what a North Long Beach, CA youth center is doing for its young people.
Does your community have a program or youth center where troubled teens can find hope for a better future? Please share.

What a great group of caring people working hard to steer youths onto paths that hold promise.
It was a bold move for them to travel to Sacramento and state their case to continue receiving funds. Rightfully, they believe in their cause and are willing to stand up for it.
Thank you for sharing this good news.
