PRN Youth Worker – Salisbury, MD

Lead4Life, Inc. believes a village of caring adults is needed to create a loving, supportive community for the youth we serve. Through our grassroots programs, we create an environment that empowers youth to develop skills needed to become productive adults that continue their education, obtain employment, and grow beyond their current opportunities. Lead4Life, Inc. (L4L) was founded in 2008 in an effort to reduce the number of youth entering the juvenile justice system, the number of out-of-home placements, and the youth recidivism rate. L4L’s programs are developed utilizing restorative practices, strength-based and Positive Youth Development models. These programs help youth and their families address negative behaviors that all too often result in involvement with our criminal justice system. L4L staff, mentors, and volunteers work together to empower individuals to develop positive life, social and competency skills, enabling them to become productive community members. Services such as alternative to detention programs, diversion, and grassroots mentoring are provided both in the community and in youth detention facilities. Lead4Life is a community-based 501 (c)(3) nonprofit that serves Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
