The TEND Court plants positive seeds, hope, and meets each youth at the level they are at…
(Reply from a TEND Court youth) … “and it’s up to us to water the seed” …​​​​
The TEND Court understands the importance of continually redirecting the youth in a positive, respectful, and encouraging way - while watching each youth go through and reaching the blooming stage successfully.
As the TEND Court’s goal is also to build trust, encourage the youth, nurturing their goals, dreams, and wishes, while they discover their new journey and establish self-sufficiency levels.
