Children
Where Children LiveWe work everyday to ensure children have a safe and drug free place to live and grow. Addiction, poverty, and violence have the propensity to perpetuate themselves generation after generation. Children raised in families coping with these problems struggle academically and miss more days of school than their counterparts. They're also likely to display emotional and mental challenges, which can create barriers to academic and social success. Amethyst's goal is to break the generational cycle. We provide a healthy environment combined with supportive and therapeutic services designed with children's needs in mind. Children living at Amethyst receive emergency babysitting, after-school tutoring, and drug and violence prevention education that coaches children on important resistance skills and ways to effectively communicate with peers and others. Amethyst kids also have an opportunity to attend SummerQuest, our therapeutic summer day camp. Feature: Get a copy of our Children's Book. Our Children's Book is written by Amethyst children to help other children at risk. Learn more. |
