The Perseverance Project, Inc is a community nonprofit organization that works to reduce the number of youth and young adults, ages 13-25, who have made contact with the justice system. Their goal is to promote and provide community-based opportunities that align with both juvenile and criminal justice reform initiatives in order to minimize and eliminate foreseeable barriers that may be endured within this forgotten population.

 

In an effort to provide a successful continuum of care, their services include: Mental Health Counseling, Substance Abuse Education/Prevention, Workforce Development, Education Enrichment/Learning Support and Advocacy. TPP, Inc. works to ensure that their clients persevere despite the obstacles they have faced on their path to a successful and productive adulthood. They seek to establish partnerships with schools, courts, law enforcement and community stakeholders to meet the unique needs of the population served.
