Mission Statement:

The Mission of Impact is to meet negative behaviors and negative attitudes with positive instruction as well as direct discipline with an emphasis in character development, integrity, individual morals and ethics while concentrating on behavior correctness.

Philosophy/Belief Statement:

Children’s social environment is everything to them and it pushes them in directions that they sometimes lose control. In our communities at this present moment, we have gang activities, crime, alcohol, drug abuse and neglect. Mentoring a child is a way to give back to the community and to gain life itself through a child’s life. To be an IMPACT in a child’s life is God’s law of life itself.
