Note: Before each workshop we guide the youth in a moment of meditation and gratitude announcements. This helps the youth to connect to joyful thoughts and demonstrates to them how to self-regulate their emotions. After each workshop we give space for the youth to participate in a structured sporting activity to help foster a healthy mindset and pro-social behavior.

Our partner, Jose Yenque of Arts for a Better Tomorrow (ABT) brings an alternative rehabilitative and therapeutic arts-based program like no other in North America. ABT has undertaken the challenge to positively impact the lives of underprivileged youth through the arts in a unique format devised by actor and director José Yenque. He saw a need to address the transition into adulthood of abandoned youth, using the arts as tools to help them overcome traumas and learning barriers. Thus, ABT is ensuring that they are better prepared for life. ABT gained nonprofit status in 2014, but for 12 years prior, it had been running successful independent and privately funded programs in Southern California and Baja California.
