​WITH US:
This is a mentoring program for at risk youth, that pairs youth with adult mentors in order to assist the youth in becoming productive citizens. Mentors meet with youth one on one guiding them in the right direction
​
The Youth Serve program focuses primarily on youth who are of middle and early high school age. This age group is particularly problematic and a perfect time for mentoring to be effective. At-risk young people have lost faith in the possibilities that await them if they are successful in putting their lives together. Youth Serve is here to restore that hope.
​
Since our founding in 2017 Youth Haven Ministries has provided recreational programs along with optional faith based activities that teach about Jesus and answer kids questions about faith. In 2019 we entered into a partnership with Dream Academy Schools, to open the New Port Richey Teen Center as a place where kids of any faith can come and be themselves. Since this time, our services have expanded to include arts programs, life skills, mental health, educational, and leadership programs.
We offer outreach, prevention, intervention, educational, and advocacy services that assist youth and their families wherever they are at in life. Our services are provided to everyone without bias or exception and there is no mandatory church attendance or bible study to get services.
We also offer optional religious studies and services for those who seek spiritual answers to life’s questions. If you chose to attend one, you can come without fear or obligation knowing that we will still help you regardless of what you chose to believe.
