About this organization
Mission
The mission of Houston: reVision (reVision) is to leverage the power of community by connecting kids on the edge with mentors, positive peers and life-changing resources. reVision was created in 2012 through a groundbreaking public/private partnership which has grown to include 39 church partners the Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, and HISD. reVision works with youth enmeshed at every point of the school to prison pipeline - teens in trouble at school, in juvenile detention, on probation - as well as ‘certified’ youth in adult prison. Many of our system-involved youth are also in the foster care system, experiencing homelessness, are refugees or gang-affected. Since 2011, reVision has grown to serve more than 1,100 youth per year with the help of over 450 volunteers.
About
Juvenile Justice Intervention Program - Houston reVision is dedicated to helping transform the lives of troubled youth in Harris County by connecting them to caring adults and to positive peers, and by advocating for their unique educational needs. Volunteer mentors build connections to youth in the juvenile justice system, and help them transition successfully back to the community, providing encouragement, support, and positive role modeling. Professional Outreach Workers provide specialized support for youth participating in reVision programs, many of whom are just being released from juvenile facilities. Outreach Workers employ a case management approach, maintaining regular weekly contact with the youth, identifying their needs, locating services through collaborations with community agencies, and working one-on-one to develop their plans for the future. ReVision staff and volunteers lead interactive workshops on subjects including Life Skills Training, Parenting Skills, Poetry, and Creative Writing. These workshops are designed to assist youth to acquire skills necessary for successful integration into their families and their communities. ReVision staff also oversee alternative activities for youth including sports, art, dance, and service projects to help them develop pro-social skills.
