CORNERSTONES OF LIFE DIRECTIONS

Life Directions’ mission is to motivate young adults, ages 13-35 to mature into responsible, productive adults through
self-direction. The core values that center our impact are; self-responsibility, balance in relationships, partnership in diversity, and mission driven attitude.  Life Directions promotes the powerful dynamic of “Peers Inspiring Peers” in
our neighborhoods, high schools, and middle schools.
