Mission Statement

Seven Tepees Youth Program is dedicated to impacting the lives of promising inner-city youth. Our mission is to work with urban youth entrusted to our care to foster the skills they need to make lifelong positive choices and to create their own opportunities for success.

Program Philosophy

Our program targets inner city youth and works with them for a period of seven years. We provide them with the building blocks that will help them create positive, successful futures. Youth are encouraged in social competency, academic skills, healthy self-esteem, exposure to new options, and increased understanding and appreciation of their natural environment. Seven Tepees has received local and national recognition as an innovative youth program and serves as a model to other youth service organizations.
